B
30 cm
C

D
+15 cm
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -It’s a simple one. If the object distance (u) is 30 cm and image distance (v) is also 30cm. Then, f=15cm.

Detailed explanation-2: -When an object is kept at a distance of 30 cm from a concave mirror, the image is formed at a distance of 10 cm.

Detailed explanation-3: -Solution: We have, u = – 30 cm and f = – 20 cm. So, the image will be formed 60 cm from the mirror.
