(i) The object distance u = -10 cm. Then Eq gives
\(\frac { 1 }{ v } +\frac { 1 }{ 10 } =\frac { 1 }{ -7.5 } \)
or \(v=\frac { 10\times 7.5 }{ -2.5 } =-30\) cm
The image is 30 cm from the mirror on the same side as the object

\(\frac { 1 }{ f } =\left( { \mu }_{ 21 }-1 \right) \left( \frac { 1 }{ { R }_{ 1 } } -\frac { 1 }{ { R }_{ 2 } } \right) \)
\(\frac { 1 }{ f } =\left( 1.55-1 \right) \left( \frac { 1 }{ R } -\frac { 1 }{ -R } \right) \)
