To solve the problem of drawing ray diagrams showing image formation by a convex mirror for two different object placements, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Draw the Convex Mirror - Start by drawing a horizontal line to represent the principal axis. - Draw the convex mirror as a curved line facing the object side. Label the mirror as "Convex Mirror" and mark the focal point (F) and the pole (P) of the mirror. ### Step 2: Case (a) - Object at Infinity - Draw an arrow representing the object at infinity, which will be parallel to the principal axis. ...
