उत्तर
In torches, search lights and headlights of vehicles the bulb is placed very near to the focus of the reflector.
Explanation -
In torches, search lights and headlights of vehicles concave mirrors are used. When a light source is placed at the focus of the mirror, after reflection light rays become parallel to the principal axis. Due to this, the bulb is placed very near to the focus of the reflector.
