The focal length of a mirror is given by 1f=1u+1  v\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{u} + \frac{{1\;}}{v} where u and vv represent object and image distances respectively. The maximum relative error in ff is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Δff=Δuu+Δvv+Δuu+v+Δvu+v\frac{{\Delta f}}{f} = \frac{{\Delta u}}{u} + \frac{{\Delta v}}{v} + \frac{{\Delta u}}{{u + v}} + \frac{{\Delta v}}{{u + v}}
Option D (Δff=Δuu+Δvv+Δuu+v+Δvu+v\frac{{\Delta f}}{f} = \frac{{\Delta u}}{u} + \frac{{\Delta v}}{v} + \frac{{\Delta u}}{{u + v}} + \frac{{\Delta v}}{{u + v}}) is correct because it correctly represents the maximum relative error in f, derived using error propagation techniques.
