Explanation :
The interaction between two objects is termed as the collision. The collision can be of two types i.e. elastic collision and inelastic collision.
In this case, two identical carts travel at the same speed toward each other, and then a collision occurs. In an inelastic collision, the momentum before and after the collision remains the same but its kinetic energy gets lost.
After the collision, both the object sticks over each other and moves with one velocity.
Out of the given graph, the graph that shows a perfectly inelastic collision is attached. It shows that after the collision both the carts move with the same velocity.
1) Focal length
We can find the focal length of the mirror by using the mirror equation:
(1)
where
f is the focal length
is the distance of the object from the mirror
is the distance of the image from the mirror
In this case,
, while 
(the distance of the image should be taken as negative, because the image is to the right (behind) of the mirror, so it is virtual). If we use these data inside (1), we find the focal length of the mirror:
from which we find
2) The mirror is convex: in fact, for the sign convention, a concave mirror has positive focal length while a convex mirror has negative focal length. In this case, the focal length is negative, so the mirror is convex.
3) The image is virtual, because it is behind the mirror and in fact we have taken its distance from the mirror as negative.
4) The radius of curvature of a mirror is twice its focal length, so for the mirror in our problem the radius of curvature is:
We can find the focal length of the mirror by using the mirror equation:
where
f is the focal length
In this case,
from which we find

Answer:
20 cm
Explanation:
We can solve the problem by using the magnification equation:
where
is the size of the image
is the height of the real object (the man)
is the distance of the image from the lens
is the distance of the object (the man) from the lens
Solving the formula for , we find
And the negative sign means the image is inverted.
