Question

Identify from the following the ray diagram which shows the correct path of the reflected ray for the ray incident on a concave mirror as shown:

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Hint:

When dealing with concave mirrors, the reflection depends on the incident ray’s position relative to the focal point and center of curvature.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Understanding the ray diagram. A concave mirror forms an image that is reflected in a path determined by the focus (F) and the center of curvature (C). The correct ray diagram will show the reflected ray passing through the focus or focal point.
Step 2: Analyzing the options. - Option (C) depicts the correct reflected ray path for the concave mirror. 
Step 3: Conclusion. Thus, the correct answer is option (C). {10pt}
