1.

Which kind of curved mirror bulges its reflective surface toward the light?

a)

Concave

b)

Convex

c)

Plane

d)

All of these

2.

A concave mirror is a curved mirror in which the reflective surface bulges away from the light source.  Why is it also known as a converging mirror?

a)

Parallel incident rays diverge after reflection.

b)

Parallel incident rays diverge in one direction.

c)

Parallel rays converge at the focus after reflection.

d)

Parallel incident rays converge in any direction after reflection.

3.

Which of the following differentiates a converging mirror from a diverging mirror?

a)

Diverging mirror is used to focus light while a converging mirror is not used to focus light.

b)

Diverging mirror reflects light inward to one focal point. It is used to focus light while the converging mirror reflects light outwards.

c)

Converging mirror bulges towards the light source while in a diverging mirror, the reflecting surface is recessed inward.

d)

Converging mirror reflects light inward to one focal point. It is used to focus light while the diverging mirror reflects light outwards.

4.

Which of the following illustrates a converging mirror?

a)

I

b)

II

c)

III

d)

IV

5.

An object is placed at the focal point of a concave mirror. Where is the location of the image formed?

a)

Between C and F 

b)

Between F and V

6.

An object is located at the center of the curvature of a concave mirror. What is the orientation and location of the image?

a)

Inverted at C 

b)

Inverted at F

Upright between C and F

7.

How would you describe the image in the given diagram?

a)

inverted, real, same, located between C and F

b)

inverted, real, reduced, and located between C and F

c)

upright, virtual, enlarged, located between C and F

d)

upright, virtual, reduced, located between C and F

8.

a)

erect, reduced, and real

b)

erect, magnified, and virtual

c)

inverted, magnified, and real

d)

inverted, reduced, and real

9.

What type of lens produces an image that is always upright, reduced, and virtual?

a)

b)

 Convex

c)

Both a & b

d)

None of these

10.

How would you compare the image formed by the concave and convex lens?

a)

Concave lens produces virtual and upright image while convex lens real and inverted image.

b)

Concave lens produces a real and upright image while convex lens produces a virtual and inverted image.

c)

Concave lens produces a virtual and enlarged image while convex lens produces a real and reduced image.

d)

None of these

11.

Like mirrors, lenses can be convex or concave. What happens to light when it travels through a convex lens?

a)

Reflect

b)

 Bounce off

c)

Diverge or spread apart

d)

Converge or come together
