In each of the questions, assertion(A) is given by corresponding statement of reason (R) of the statemens. Mark the correct answer. Q. Statement I: The formula connecting u,v and f for a spherical mirror is valid only for mirrors whose sizes are very small compared to their radii of curvature. Statement II: Laws of reflection are strictly valid for plane surfaces, but not for large spherical surfaces.

The formula connecting u,v and f for a spherical mirror is valid only for mirrors whose sizes are very small compared to their radii of curvature. Because Statement-2 Laws of reflection are strictly valid for plane surfaces, but nor for large spherical surfaces.s

Statement - 1 : The formula connecting u, v and f for a spherical mirror is valid only for mirrors whose sizes are very small compared to their radii of curvature. Because Statement - 2 : Laws of reflection are strictly valid for plane surfaces, but not for large spherical surfaces.

Assertion:- The formula ((1)/(4)+(1)/(u)=(1)/(f)) connecting u and v for a spherical mirror is valid only for mirros whose sizes are very small compared to their radii of curvatures. Reason:- Laws of reflection are strictly valid for smaller size of of optical system.

Assertion : Focal length of a spherical mirror does not depend on the material from which mirror is made but same for the lens depends on the material of lens. Reason : Law of reflection does not depend on material and surrounding medium but law of refraction depends on refractive index of the materials.
