 REFLECTION
Is the bouncing of light rays when it hits a surface.
(plane mirrors)
The reflection of light can be roughly
categorized into two types of reflection:

Specular reflection is defined as light reflected

from a smooth surface at a definite angle.
Diffuse reflection, which is produced by rough
surfaces that tend to reflect light in all
directions. (under the tree, buildings, rocks)
 Law of
Reflection
States that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of
reflection.

RAY DIAGRAMMING –
The goal of a ray diagram is to determine the location,
size, orientation, and type of image that is formed by
the concave mirror. Typically, this requires determining
where the image of the upper and lower extreme of the
object is located and then tracing the entire image.
The centre of curvature is the centre of the sphere of which
the spherical mirror is a part. It is denoted by 'C’.

The principal axis of a spherical mirror is the line passing

through the center of the mirror that is exactly perpendicular
to the surface of the mirror.

Focus the point on the axis of a lens or mirror to which

parallel rays of light converge or from which they appear to
diverge after refraction or reflection. a central point of
attention or interest.
 Problem 1:
A bottle is placed 15 cm from the vertex of a
concave mirror that has a focal length of 12
cm.
 Problem 2:
A Chess piece 1.2 cm high is standing 4.0
cm from a converging mirror having a focal
length of 20 cm.
