उत्तर
Two kinds of spherical mirrors are concave and convex.
Distinction between concave and convex mirror: A concave mirror's bulging surface is silvered and reflection takes place from the hollow surface but a convex mirror's inner surface is silvered and reflection takes place from the bulging surface.

A 4 cm tall object is placed on the principal axis of a convex lens. The distance of the object from the optical centre of the lens is 12 cm and its sharp image is formed at a distance of 24 cm from it on a screen on the other side of the lens. If the object is now moved a little away from the lens, in which way (towards the lens or away from the lens) will he have to move the screen to get a sharp image of the object on it again? How will the magnification of the image be affected?
State the two convenient rays that are chosen to construct the image by a spherical mirror for a given object? Explain your answer with the help of suitable ray diagrams.
