Question

Draw a labeled ray diagram to show the image formed by a concave mirror. Also, write its position and nature when the object is placed at centre of curvature.

Answer 1

1. When an object is placed in front of a concave mirror, light rays from the object fall on the mirror and get reflected. The reflected rays produce an image at a point where they intersect each other.
2. Position of object -at the centre of curvature
3. Position of the image -at the centre of curvature
4. Nature of the image -Real, inverted, diminished
5. Ray diagram: When the object is at the centre of curvature
