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


To construct a ray diagram we use two rays of light which are so chosen that it is easy to determine their directions after reflection from the mirror. Choose these two rays and state the path of these rays after reflection from a concave mirror. Use these two rays to find the nature and position of the image of an object placed at a distance of 15 cm from a concave mirror of focal length 10 cm.


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.


The image of a candle flame placed at a distance of 30 cm from a mirror is formed on a screen placed in front of the mirror at a distance of 60 cm from its pole. What is the nature of the mirror? Find its focal length. If the height of the flame is 2.4 cm, find the height of its image. State whether the image formed is erect or inverted.


Draw the following diagram in your answer book and show the formation of image with the help of suitable rays:

Describe the nature of image formed when the object is placed at a distance of 20 cm from a concave mirror of focal length 10 cm


A concave mirror produces a real image 1 cm tall of an object 2.5 mm tall placed 5 cm from the mirror. Find the position of the image and the focal length of the mirror.


An object is 24 cm away from a concave mirror and its image is 16 cm from the mirror. Find the focal length and radius of curvature of the mirror, and the magnification of the image.


A real image of an object is to be obtained. The mirror required for this purpose is:

(a) convex
(b) concave
(c) plane
(d) either convex or concave


An object is placed 15 cm from (a) a converging mirror, and (b) a diverging mirror, of radius of curvature 20 cm. Calculate the image position and magnification in each case. 


Draw a ray diagram to show the formation of image of an object placed on the principal axis of a convex mirror. State the position, size and nature of the image. What happens to the image as the object is moved away from the mirror?


How can a concave mirror be used to obtain a virtual image of an object? Draw a diagram to illustrate your answer.

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


The mirror having reflection surface curved outward ______.


A concave mirror of radius 30 cm is placed in water. It’s focal length in air and water differ by ______.


While looking at the above diagram, Nalini concluded the following.

  1. the image of the object will be a virtual one.
  2. the reflected ray will travel along the same path as the incident ray but in opposite direction.
  3. the image of the object will be inverted.
  4. this is a concave mirror and hence the focal length will be negative.

Which one of the above statements are correct?


A student wants to obtain an erect image of an object using a concave mirror of 10 cm focal length. What will be the distance of the object from mirror?
