After reflection, the light rays from a point object at the focus of a concave mirror,

When the object is at focus of a concave mirror, the image is formed at

We know that parallel light rays which are inclined to the principal axis of a spherical mirror, after reflection converge at a point in the focal plane of the mirror. With this knowledge explain how you will trace the reflected ray for incident ray PQ shown in the Fig. F is focus and C is centre of curvature of the mirror.

(a) To construct a ray diagram, we use two rays which are so chosen that it is easy to know their directions after reflection from the mirror. List two such rays and state the path of these rays after reflection in case of concave mirrors. Use these two rays and draw ray diagram to locate the image of an object placed between pole and focus of a concave mirror. (b) A concave mirror produces three times magnified image on a screen. If the object is placed 20 cm in front of the mirror, how far is the screen from the object?

A point object is placed at a distance 20 cm from the focus of a concave mirror of radius of curvature 20 cm. Find the distance (incm) of the image from the focus.

A point object is placed at a distance 20 cm from the focus of a concave mirror of radius of curvature 20 cm. Find the distance (in cm) of the image from the focus.
