Spherical Mirror

Choose the type of mirror which can produce both real and virtual images of the object.

Both plane and convex mirrors can produce a magnified image of the object whereas a concave mirror cannot produce a magnified image.

A concave mirror can only form a virtual image as in the case of a plane and a convex mirror. Do you agree with the statement? Justify your answer.

Derive the relationship between the focal length and radius of curvature of a convex mirror.

Derive the relationship between the focal length and radius of curvature of a concave mirror.

The focus of the concave mirror is situated in front of the mirror.

Show diagrammatically convergent and divergent nature of spherical mirrors.

Name the mirror which converges the light rays.

Define real and virtual images.

Write the names of various spherical mirrors.
