In the figure shown,the image of a real object $O$ is formed at point $I$. $AB$ is the principal axis of the mirror. The mirror must be:

  • A
    concave & placed towards right of $I$
  • B
    concave & placed towards left of $I$
  • C
    convex and placed towards right of $I$
  • D
    convex & placed towards left of $I$

In the case of a spherical mirror,if the object distance $(u)$ and image distance $(v)$ are measured from the pole,then the graph plotted between $(1/u)$ and $(1/v)$ will be:

An object is placed at a distance of $18 \ cm$ in front of a mirror. If the image is formed at a distance of $4 \ cm$ on the other side,then the focal length,nature of the mirror,and nature of the image are respectively:

For a concave mirror,the $\frac{1}{u}$ versus $\frac{1}{v}$ graph obtained by the parallax method is as shown in the figure. The graph is a straight line with a slope of $-1$. The estimated value of the focal length of the mirror is: (in $cm$)

In an experiment to find the focal length of a concave mirror,a graph is drawn between the magnitudes of $u$ and $v$. The graph looks like:

Assertion $(A):$ The relation among $u, v$ and $f$ for a spherical mirror is valid only for mirrors whose sizes are very small compared to their radii of curvature.
Reason $(R):$ The laws of reflection are strictly valid for plane surfaces but not for large spherical surfaces.
