2. If a real and inverted image of an object is formed, then the magnification is positive or
negative?
3. A spoon seen from the inner side behaves as _______ mirror.
4. No matter how far you stand from a mirror your image appears erect. The mirror is likely to be:
a) Plane c) Concave
b) Convex d) Plane or Convex
5. The radius of curvature of a convex mirror is 20cm, then it’s focal length will be
a.40cm b.10cm c.-40cm d.-10cm
6. Rays from the sun converge at a point 15 cm in front of a concave mirror. Where should an
object be placed so that the size of its image is equal to the size of the object?
(a) 15 cm in front of the mirror
(b) 30 cm in front of the mirror
(c) between 15 cm and 30 cm in front of the mirror
(d) more than 30 cm in front of the mirror.
9. If the focal length of a concave mirror is 10 cm. Find its Radius of curvature.
a) headlights of a car
c) solar cooker
d) security mirrors.
11. A concave mirror forms real, inverted and same sized image of the object. Where is the object
placed? Draw a well labelled ray diagram.
12. State two positions in which a concave mirror produces a magnified image of a given image of a
given object. List two differences between two images.
13. A concave mirror produces three times magnified real image of an object placed at 10 cm in front of
it. Where is the image located?
14. The radius of curvature of a convex mirror used for rearview on a car is 4.00 m. If the location of the
bus is 6 m from this mirror, find the position of the image formed.
15. AB and CD, two spherical mirrors, from parts of a hollow spherical ball with its centre at O as shown
in the diagram. If arc AB = 12 arc CD, what is the ratio of their focal lengths? State which of the two
mirrors will always form virtual image of an object placed in front of it and why?
