Problem

As the position of an object in front of a concave spherical mirror of focal length 0.25 m0.25\text{ m} is varied, the position of the image varies. Plot the image distance as a function of the object distance, letting the latter change from 00 to +∞+\infty. Where is the image real? Where is it virtual?
