Answer:

40 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Magnification of concave mirror, m=4

Object distance, u=-10cm

We have to find the position of image.

We know that

Magnification of concave mirror, m=
-(v)/(u)

Using the formula


4=-(v)/(-10)


4=(v)/(10)


v=4* 10


v=40cm

Hence, the image is formed at distance 40 cm behind the mirror.
