Question

Which type of reflection is produced when light reflects from curved and smooth surfaces?

• A. Concave reflection
• B. Convex reflection
• C. Diffused reflection
• D. None of these

Hint:

In convex reflection, light rays diverge, while in concave reflection, they converge.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

When light reflects off curved and smooth surfaces, particularly from a convex surface, the light rays diverge after reflection. This is called convex reflection. In contrast, concave surfaces cause light rays to converge. Convex surfaces are those that curve outward, like the surface of a sphere, which results in light spreading out after reflection.
