Solution

The correct option is B (64^i24^j) ms1
For the given concave mirror.
u=40 cm,f=30 cm

Relative velocity of object with respect mirror,
Vom=VogVmg
=(10cos53^i+10sin53^j)(^i)
=6^i+8^j+^i
=(7^i+8^j)m/s

Using mirror formula
1v140=130
1v=140130=1120
v=120 cm

So, m=vu=(120)40=3

Also, component of velocity of the image along the principal axis (x - axis) is given by
Vim(x)=m2Vom(x)
Vim(x)=(3)2×7=63 m/s

Component of velocity of the image moving perpendicular to the principal axis (y - axis) is given by
Vim(y)=mVom(y)
Vim(y)=(3)×(8)=24 m/s

So, net velocity of the image w.r.t to the mirror =(63^i24^j)m/s

Now, the velocity of the image w.r.t the ground
Vig=Vim+Vmg
Vig=(63^i24^j)+(^i)
Vig=(64^i24^j) m/s
Why this Question?

Note: Splitting velocity vector into components along principle axis and perpendicular to it is must for calculation of velocity of image.
