Question

a concave mirror has focal lenght 10cm,in air. what will be the change in its focal length when immersed in water?

Solution

There will be no change in the focal length, as the laws of reflection are same inside the water as well. No extra refraction is taking place at the surface of the mirror, and the laws of reflection only effect the focal length.
