उत्तर

When the object is between the centre of curvature and the focus of a concave mirror

Here, Object AB is kept between C and F

First, we draw a ray parallel to principal axis
So, it passes through focus after reflection

We draw another ray which passes through Center of Curvature
So, the ray will go back along the same path after reflection

Where both reflected rays meet is point A'
And the image formed is A'B'
This image is formed between beyong Center(C)

We can say that

Image is in Front of the mirror (Real image)
Image is Inverted
Image is larger than the object (Magnified)

List four characteristics of the images formed by plane mirrors.


A student has obtained the image of a distant object with a concave mirror to determine its focal length. If he has selected a well-illuminated red building as object, which of the following correctly describes the features of the image formed?

(A) Virtual, inverted and diminished image in red shade

(B) Real, erect and diminished image in pink shade

(C) Real, inverted and diminished image in red shade

(D) Virtual, erect and enlarged image in red shade


A student wants to project the image of a candle flame on the walls of the school laboratory by using a mirror.

(a) Which type of mirror should he use and why?

(b) At what distance, in terms of focal length 'f' of the mirror, should he place the candle flame to get the magnified image on the wall?

(c) Draw a ray diagram to show the formation of the image in this case.

(d) Can he use this mirror to project a diminished image of the candle flame on the same wall? State 'how' if your answer is 'yes' and 'why not' if your answer is 'no.'

(b) at focus
(c) at the centre of curvature
(d) at infinity


Giving reasons, state the 'signs' (positive or negative) which can be given to the following:

(b) image distance (v) for a concave mirror
(c) image distance (v) for a convex mirror
