Applications Of Reflection Of Light

When a light ray (termed as the incident ray) hits a surface and bounces back (forms a reflected ray), the process of reflection of light has taken place.

Sign Convention for Mirrors

A mirror is made of glass that is coated with a metal amalgam on one side due to which the light ray incident on the surface undergoes reflection and not refraction.

Question

An object has its image formed 20 cm from
a convex mirror. The height of the object is
two times greater than the height of the
image. The object distance, p, is
O 50 cm
O 40 cm
30 cm
O10 cm
O 20 cm
