When an object is placed between pole and focus of a concave mirror, then the images formed are
MEDIUM
A concave mirror gives an image three times as large as its object placed at a distance of 20 cm from it. For the image to be real, the focal length should be
EASY
A concave mirror produces an image of a long vertical pin, placed 40 cm from the mirror, at the position of the object. Find the focal length of the mirror (in cm). 
 
EASY
If the image formed by a spherical mirror for all positions of the object placed in front of it is always erect and diminished, what type of mirror is it ? Draw a labelled ray diagram to support your answer. 
MEDIUM

A spherical mirror is obtained as shown in the figure from a hollow glass sphere, if an object is positioned in front of the mirror, what will be the nature and magnification of the image of the object? (Figure down as schematic and not to scale)

When an object is kept within the focus of a concave mirror, an enlarged image is formed behind the mirror. This image is:
EASY
A concave mirror forms an enlarged, erect, virtual image of an object, only when the object is placed
MEDIUM

Focal length of one convex mirror is 3 m and object distance is 5 m, then find the image distance.

HARD
An object, is placed 60 cm in front of a convex mirror of focal length 30 cm. A plane mirror is now placed facing the object in between the object and the convex mirror such that it covers lower half of the convex mirror. What should be the distance of the plane mirror from the object, so that there will be no parallax between the images formed by the two mirrors?
EASY
For a real object, which of the following can produce a real image?
HARD
Draw the ray diagram of image formation by a convex mirror when the object is placed at its centre of curvature.
HARD
A concave mirror has radius of curvature of 40 cm. It is at the bottom of a glass that has water filled up to 5 cm (see figure). If a small particle is floating on the surface of water, its image as seen, from directly above the glass, is at a distance d from the surface of water. The value of d is close to: (Refractive index of water =1.33)
