Answer:
Concept:
The phenomenon of light reflecting occurs when light hits an object's surface and bounces back in the same medium. The incident ray, the reflected ray, and the normal (at the point of incidence) all lie in the same plane, according to the first of the two rules of reflection.
Explanation:
- This law of reflection still holds true for mirrors with curved surfaces, but the curved surface of the mirror produces distinct pictures from a plane mirror.
- The image will project beyond the centre of curvature when an object is positioned on the principal axis of a concave mirror between the focus and the centre of curvature.
- The spherical mirror's inside side is reflected. The spherical mirror's outside side is reflected.
- The surface is oriented in a specific direction at the precise moment the light strikes it. Draw a tangent to the curved surface to see that direction. If you observe how light reflects off that tangent, it behaves exactly as if it were striking a flat mirror that was facing that direction. Therefore, the law of reflection is valid.
