Question

rules for drawing the ray diagram for convex mirror

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

An incident ray parallel to the principal

axis of the mirror either passes through

the principal focus F (concave mirror)

or appears to be diverging from it

(convex mirror).

2. An incident ray passing through the

centre of curvature C (concave mirror)

or appearing to pass through it (convex

mirror), retraces its path i.e. reflected

back along its original path. You must note that this ray is

incident normal to the mirror.

3. An incident ray passing through the principal focus F (concave

mirror) or appearing to pass through it (convex mirror) will be

reflected from the mirror parallel to the principal axis.

4. An incident ray striking the pole P of the mirror is reflected at

an angle equal to the angle of incidence with the principal axis.

Answer 2

Rules for drawing ray diagrams-

1. take at least two rays

2. always keep the object on the left side in front of the reflecting surface.

3. always place the object vertically upright so that it is perpendicular the principal axis..
