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.

Ray Tracing for a Concave Mirror
9 of 22
Constants
An object O is placed at the location shown in front of a concave spherical
mirror. Use ray tracing to determine the location and size of the reflected image.
As you work, keep in mind the following properties of principal rays:
Part A
1. A ray parallel to the axis, after reflection, passes through the focal
point F of a concave mirror or appears to come from the (virtual)
focal point of a convex mirror.
2. A ray through (or proceeding toward) the focal point Fis reflected
parallel to the axis.
3. A ray along the radius through or away from the center of
curvature C intersects the surface normally and is reflected back
along its original path.
4. A ray to the vertex V is reflected, forming equal angles with the
optic axis.
