Q1. Parallel rays of light incident on a concave mirror are shown in fig. (1 M)

(i)Redraw the reflected rays in both the cases

(ii)Name the points where reflected rays meet or appears to meet on the
principal axis.

Q2. A ray of light AM is incident on a spherical mirror as shown in the diagram .Redraw
the diagram and show the reflected ray .Also indicate and mark the angle of
incidence and the angle of reflection in the diagram. (1 M)

Q3. Where should an object be placed on the Principal Axis of a Concave mirror ,so
that: (1 M)
a. Its real image is of the same size as that of the object.
b. A magnified and virtual image of the object is formed

Q4. Why does a ray of Light passing through the centre of curvature of a concave
mirror after reflection is reflected back along the same path. (1 M)
Q5. In the following diagram, MM’ is a concave mirror and AB is an object. Draw a ray
diagram to show the formation of image of this object. (1 M)

Q6. Which property of concave mirror is utilised for using them as shaving mirror?
(1 M)
Q7. Differentiate between virtual image formed by a concave mirror of a convex
mirror. (1 M)
Q8. A man standing in front of a spherical mirror, find his image having a very small
head, a fat body and legs of normal size. What type of mirror are used in these
three parts? (1 M)

ASSERTION-REASON
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true but R is False.
(d) A is False but R is true.
Q9. ASSERTION -A ray passing through centre of curvature of a concave mirror after
reflection, is reflected back along the same path. (1 M)
REASON- The incident rays fall on the mirror along the normal to the reflecting
surface.
Q10. ASSERTION -The mirrors used in search lights are concave spherical. (1 M)
REASON- In concave spherical mirror the image formed is always virtual.

Q11. The diameter of the reflecting surface of spherical mirror is called its (1 M)
(a) aperture
(b) focal length
(c) radius of curvature
(d) none of these
Q12. Which of these mirrors will give the full image of a large object? (1 M)
(a) Plane mirror
(b) Concave mirror
(c) Convex mirror
(d) None of these

Q13. The full length image of distant tall building can definitely be seen by using
(1 M)
(a) a concave mirror
(b) a convex mirror
(c) a plane mirror
(d) both concave as well as plane mirrors

Q14 If the image formed by a spherical mirror for all positions of the object placed in
front of it is always erect and diminished, what type of mirror is it? Draw labelled
ray diagram to support your answers. (2 M)

Q15. Name the mirror that :

(a) Can give real as well as virtual image of an object
(b) Will always give virtual image of same size of an object.
(c) Will always give virtual and diminished image of an object
(d) Is used by a doctor in examining teeth. (2 M)

Q16 (i) List four characteristics of the images formed by plane mirrors?
(ii) How can you distinguish between a plane mirror, a concave mirror and a
convex mirror without touching them? (3 M)
