Give three applications of concave mirrors.
Which mirror has a wider field of view?
Define the term Principal axis.
Define the term Aperture.
Define the term Principal focus.
An object is brought towards a concave mirror. How does the position and size of the image change?
What do you mean by the magnification produced by mirrors?
For what position of an object, a concave mirror forms an enlarged virtual image?
For what position of an object, a concave mirror forms a real image equal in size to the object?
Explain with a suitable diagram, the converging of a parallel beam of light rays by a concave mirror.
What is meant by a ray of light?
Write down four characteristics of light.
Show an incident ray AO and the normal ON a plan mirror. draw the reflected ray and then find the angle between the incident and reflected rays.
A boy is standing in front of a plane mirror at a distance of 3 m from it.
(i) What is the distance between the boy and his image?
(ii) If the boy moves 1 m backward, find the distance between the image and the boy.
(i) What is the distance between the boy and his image?
(ii) If the boy moves 1 m backward, find the distance between the image and the boy.
Distinguish between real and virtual images.
In the following figure shows a concave mirror with its pole (P), focus (F) and centre of curvature (C). Draw a ray diagram to show the formation of the image of an object AB by the concave mirror.
The following figure shows a concave mirror with its pole (P), focus (F), and center of curvature (C). Draw a ray diagram to show the formation of the image of an object AB by the concave mirror.
Complete the following diagrams shown in the below figure by drawing the reflected ray for each incident ray.
Complete the following diagrams shown in the below figure by drawing the reflected ray for each incident ray.
The image formed in a plane mirror is the real, erect, and same size as that of the object.
The image in a plane mirror is situated in the mirror.
If the incident ray makes an angle of $X^o$ with the normal, then the reflected ray is $2X^o.$
View full solution →If a ray of light incident on a plane mirror is such that it makes an angle of $30^o$ with the mirror, then the angle of reflection is$ 60^o$.
View full solution →The angle of incidence is the angle made by the incident ray with the plane mirror.
