Read each question carefully and answer to the best of your ability. Show all your work for calculations and draw clear ray diagrams where required.
1. Which type of mirror always forms a virtual, upright, and diminished image?
Plane mirror
Concave mirror
Convex mirror
Both concave and convex mirrors
2. An object is placed at the center of curvature (C) of a concave mirror. Where will the image be formed?
At F (focal point)
At C (center of curvature)
Between F and C
Beyond C
3. The angle of incidence is always to the angle of reflection.
4. A mirror is used in security cameras to provide a wider field of view.
5. The focal length of a spherical mirror is half its .
6. A real image can be projected onto a screen.
True
False
7. The image formed by a plane mirror is laterally inverted.
True
False
8. Draw a ray diagram for an object placed between the focal point (F) and the pole (P) of a concave mirror. Describe the characteristics of the image formed.

9. Explain why convex mirrors are commonly used as rearview mirrors in vehicles.
