प्रश्न
following Figure shows two rays A and B being reflected by a mirror and going as A' and B'. The mirror
पर्याय
is plane
is convex
is concave
may be any spherical mirror.
उत्तर
is plane
This is because the reflected rays are still parallel, which is only possible if the mirror is a plane mirror. A spherical mirror will either converge or diverge the reflected rays.
