Answer:
(a) Draw the ray diagram and give the position and nature of the image formed for the following position of objects in case of concave mirror.
(1) object placed at F
(2) object placed between pole and focus.
(3) List the properties of image formed by plane mirror
Answer:
(i) When an object is placed between the pole and focus of a concave mirror, the image is formed behind the mirror, it is virtual, erect and larger than the object.
(ii) When the object is placed between center of curvature and principal focus of a concave mirror the image formed is beyond C and it is real, inverted and magnified.
