प्रश्न
Rays from Sun converge at a point 15 cm in front of a concave mirror. Where should an object be placed so that size of its image is equal to the size of the object?
पर्याय
15 cm in front of the mirror
30 cm in front of the mirror
between 15 cm and 30 cm in front of the mirror
more than 30 cm in front of the mirror
उत्तर
30 cm in front of the mirror
Explanation -
The rays from the sun are considered parallel to the principal axis. These rays will converge at the focus of the concave mirror. It shows that focal length of the mirror is 15 cm and the centre of curvature is 30 cm. In case of concave mirror, when the object is placed at the centre of curvature, the image is formed at the centre of curvature itself and of the same size.

To construct a ray diagram we use two rays which are so chosen that it is easy to know their directions after reflection from the mirror. List two such rays and state the path of these rays after reflection in case of concave mirrors. Use these two rays and draw ray diagram to locate the image of an object placed between pole and focus of a concave mirror.
