1) what is mirror? what are its types?
Answers
Answer:
A mirror is a smooth surface on which regular reflection takes place. ... Concave mirror: If the concave surface of a sphere acts as the reflector, that is if regular reflection of light takes place from the concave surface of the spherical mirror, then it is called a concave mirror.
Answer:
A mirror is defined as reflecting surface and can be explained by the law of reflection, which states that when a ray of light is made to fall on the reflecting surface, the reflected ray has its angle of reflection, incident ray, and the reflected ray are normal to the surface at a point of incidence
Explanation:
Types of mirror:-
Plane mirror:
The images formed from a plane mirror are the reflected images in their normal proportions but reversed from left to right. These are the most widely used mirrors.
Convex mirror:
These are the spherical mirror that is curved outward and the image obtained is virtual, diminished and erect for a real object.
Concave mirrors:
These are the spherical mirror that is curved inward and the image obtained from these mirrors depend on the placement of the object.
