10. A concave mirror of radius 30cm is placed in water its focal length in air and water differ by
a. 15
b. 20
c. 30
d. 0

Answer the following question:

1. What are difference between a real and a virtual image

2. List two possible ways in which a concave mirror can produce a magnified image of an object placed in
front of it. State difference between two images.
3. Size of image of an object by a mirror having a focal length 20cm is observed to be reduced to 1/3rd of it
size. At what distance object has been placed from the mirror? What is nature of image and the mirror?
4. An object is placed at distance of 25cm from a spherical mirror and its image is farmed behind the mirror
at distance of 5cm. find the focal length is the mirror convex or concave. Give reason.
