Characteristics of Images in Mirrors

What is the horizontal line passing through the center of a spherical mirror called?

• Optical axis

• Principal axis

• Central line

• Focal line

When an object is placed outside the focal point of a concave mirror, what type of image is formed?

• Real, upright, and reduced

• Virtual, inverted, and enlarged

• Real, inverted, and enlarged

For a spherical mirror, how is the center of curvature (C) related to the focal length (F)?

• The center of curvature is half the focal length.

• The center of curvature is located at the focal point.

• The center of curvature is twice the focal length.

• The center of curvature is unrelated to the focal length.
