What to Focus On
- Concave mirror is bent inwards and converges reflected rays.
- Convex mirror is bent outwards and diverges reflected rays.
- Pole is the geometrical centre of the mirror.
- Parallel rays focus at F for a concave mirror.
- Sunlight can be used as a source of parallel rays.
- The bright spot gives the focal point.
- Ray parallel to axis reflects through F.
- Ray through F reflects parallel to axis.
- Ray through C retraces its path.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
A convex mirror behaves like a concave mirror and can form a real image on a screen.
A concave mirror always gives a real, inverted image.
The focus of a concave mirror is a fixed point where every image is formed.
