Question

An object located 100 cm100 \mathrm{~cm} from a concave mirror forms a real image 75 cm75 \mathrm{~cm} from the mirror. The mirror is then turned around so that its convex side faces the object. The mirror is moved so that the image is now 35 cm35 \mathrm{~cm} behind the mirror. How far was the mirror moved? Was it moved toward the object or away from the object?

The known values:

The initial object distance si=100 cm\rightarrow s_{i}=100\text{ cm}
The initial image distance si=75 cm\rightarrow s_{i}'=75\text{ cm}
The final image distance sf=35 cm\rightarrow s_{f}'=35\text{ cm}

Requirement:

The distance between the positions of the concave and convex mirror d\rightarrow d
