What is the Centre of Curvature of a spherical mirror? A) It is the centre of a hollow sphere of which the spherical mirror is a part B) It is the midpoint of a spherical mirror C) It is the point on the principal axis through which rays of light parallel to the principal axis pass after reflection D) It is a point from which the rays of light appear to be coming from on the principal axis of a convex mirror
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.
