प्रश्न
AB and CD, two spherical mirrors, from parts of a hollow spherical ball with its centre at O as shown in the diagram. If arc AB = `1/2` arc CD, what is the ratio of their focal lengths? State which of the two mirrors will always form virtual image of an object placed in front of it and why.

उत्तर
The ratio of the focal lengths of mirrors AB and CD will be equal to one, as both mirrors are part of the same spherical ball. Hence, their radius of curvature and focal length will be the same.
The mirror AB will always form a virtual image when an object is placed in front of it because the mirror AB is a convex mirror.
