Ray Diagrams and Convex Mirrors

Why is it important to watch the video on ray diagrams of plane mirrors before this one?

• It explains the history of mirrors.

• It describes how to draw concave mirrors.

• It shows how to clean mirrors.

• It explains how to describe an image.

What should you be able to do after watching this video?

• Clean and maintain mirrors.

• Draw ray diagrams for convex mirrors.

• Describe images produced by plane mirrors.

• Draw ray diagrams for concave mirrors.

Where will the image always be located in a convex mirror?

• Between F and C.

• On the opposite side of the mirror.

• On the side of the mirror.

• Between V and F.

What happens to light rays when they reflect off a convex mirror?

• They stay parallel.

• They separate.

• They converge.

• They disappear.

What is the first rule for drawing ray diagrams for convex mirrors?

• An incident ray going towards the mirror will reflect off as if it had come from the center of curvature.

• An incident ray going towards the mirror will reflect off as if it had come from infinity.

• An incident ray going towards the mirror will reflect off as if it had come from the vertex.

• An incident ray going towards the mirror will reflect off as if it had come from the focus.

What should you do to indicate that light is not actually traveling through the mirror?

• Draw thick lines.

• Draw solid lines.

• Draw dotted lines.

• Draw dashed lines.

Where do the reflected rays appear to cross in a convex mirror?

• At the center of curvature.

• Between V and F.

• At the focus.

• Between F and C.

How is the image described in a convex mirror?

• Same size as the original, upright, and real.

• Larger than the original, upright, and virtual.

• Smaller than the original, upright, and virtual.

• Larger than the original, inverted, and real.

What is true for every single type of image in a convex mirror?

• The image is always real.

• The image is always inverted.

• The image is always virtual.

• The image is always on the same side as the object.

What should you do if you still have trouble understanding the concepts after watching the video?

• Ask the teacher in class tomorrow.

• Watch a different video.

• Ignore the topic.

• Read a book on mirrors.
