Light rays reflect off of a convex mirror with possible focal points as shown in the figure. Which light ray(s) are INCORRECTLY drawn? To help distinguish one ray from the other, they have been drawn with different lines: Ray 1 is the long dashes, Ray 2 is the dots, Ray 3 is the solid line, and Ray 4 is the "dash-dot" line. a. Rays 1 and 2 b. Ray 4 c. Ray 2 d. Ray 3 e. Ray 1
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.
