Draw ray diagrams to show the principal focus of a concave mirror.


To construct ray diagrams, two rays of light are generally so chosen that it is easy to determine their directions after reflection from a mirror. Choose two such rays and state the path/direction of these rays after reflection from a concave mirror. Use these two rays to find the position and nature of the image of an object placed at a distance of 8 cm from a concave mirror of focal length 12 cm.


An object 4 cm in height, is placed at 15 cm in front of a concave mirror of focal length 10 cm. At what distance from the mirror should a screen be placed to obtain a sharp image of the object. Calculate the height of the image.


Which type of mirror is used by a dentist?


Fill in the following blank with suitable word:  

 Parallel rays of light are reflected by a concave mirror to a point called the ..........


If a concave mirror has a focal length of 10 cm, find the two positions where an object can be placed to give, in each case, an image twice the height of the object.


To construct ray diagram we use two light rays which are so chosen that it is easy to know their directions after reflection from the mirror. List these two rays and state the path of these rays after reflection. Use these rays to locate the image of an object placed between centre of curvature and focus of a concave mirror.


Under which of the following conditions a concave mirror can form an image larger than the actual object?


Identify the device used as a spherical mirror or lens in following case, when the image formed is virtual and erect in case.

Object is placed between device and its focus, image formed is enlarged and behind it.


To obtain an image twice the size of the object, between which two points related to a concave mirror should an object be placed?
