उत्तर
| Position of Object | Position of The Image | Image Size | Nature of the Image |
| At infinity | At F | Highly diminished | Real and inverted |
| Beyond C | Between C and F | diminished | Real and inverted |
| At C | At C | Same size as the object | Real and inverted |
| Between C and F | Beyond C | Magnified | Real and inverted |
| At F | At infinity | Highly magnified | Real and inverted |
| Between F and P | Behind the mirror | Magnified | Virtual and erect |

Draw a ray diagram to show the path of the reflected ray corresponding to an incident ray of light parallel to the principal axis of a convex mirror and show the angle of incidence and angle of reflection on it.
A communications satellite in orbit sends a parallel beam of signals down to earth. If these signals obey the same laws of reflection as light and are to be focussed onto a small receiving aerial, what should be the best shape of the metal 'dish' used to collect them?
For what position of an object, a concave mirror forms a real image equal in size to the object?
Name the type of mirror used by dentists. How does it help?
At what distance from a concave mirror of focal length 10 cm should an object be placed so that:
its real image is formed 20 cm from the mirror?
Suppose you have three concave mirrors A, B and C of focal lengths 10 cm, 15 cm and 20 cm. For each concave mirror you perform the experiment of image formation for three values of object distance of 10 cm, 20 cm and 30 cm. Giving reason answer the following:
(a) For the three object distances, identify the mirror/mirrors which will form an image of magnification – 1.
(b) Out of the three mirrors identify the mirror which would be preferred to be used for shaving purposes/makeup.
(c) For the mirror B draw ray diagram for image formation for object distances 10 cm and 20 cm.
