Write the relationship between object distance $(u)$,image distance $(v)$,and focal length $(f)$ for a spherical mirror.

  • A
    $\frac{1}{v} - \frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{f}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{f} + \frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{u}$
