Question
Write the definition of concave mirror and convex mirror.
✓
Answer
Concave mirror : If the outer part is polished and light is reflected from the inner part, then it is called concave mirror.
Convex mirror : If the inner part of a spherical mirror is polished and light is reflected from the outer part, then it is called a convex mirror.
Convex mirror : If the inner part of a spherical mirror is polished and light is reflected from the outer part, then it is called a convex mirror.
