Does the law of reflection apply to curved and flat mirrors?
The law of reflection is valid for any ray of light. So it is also valid for curved and flat surfaces. For curved surfaces, the normal is taken as the normal to the tangent of the point where the light ray hits the surface.
What is a Ray Diagram?
A ray diagram is a diagram used to trace the path that light takes in order for a person to view a point on the image an object. Ray diagrams are commonly constructed to follow light rays through different types of mirrors and lenses.
What are the non ohmic materials give examples?
draw the ray diagram of refraction of light at curved surfaces the following rarer medium to denser medium
What are the 8 parts of ray diagram?
A ray diagram is a diagram that traces the path that light takes in order for a person to view a point on the image of an object. These are the step to drawing a ray diagram, 1. Pick a point on the top of the object and draw two incident rays traveling towards the mirror. 2. Once these incident rays strike the mirror, reflect them according to the two rules of reflection for concave mirrors. 3. Mark the image of the top of the object. 4. Repeat the process for the bottom of the object.
Can mirrors be used to make a death ray?

What is true about the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection for curved mirrors?
Those angles are equal at the point where a ray of light hits the mirror,regardless of the shape of the mirror.

What questions does a ray diagram answer?
A ray diagram would answer questions on lenses in a telescope or similar instrument

How do convex mirrors make objects look smaller?
It's easier to explain if you draw a ray diagram. GO here: physicsclassroom.com . It's a helpful site. Its got something to do with the field of view is larger
How do you construct the midpoint of a ray?
You cannot. A ray is infinite in one direction and so the midpoint would be infinitely far in that direction.
What is the slightly curved bone of the shorter and thicker forearms?
my daughter's (14 years) longer bone of the forearm is curved in the x-ray and she is in pain.
What is a convex mirror and what is it used for?
Convex mirrors are also curved mirrors, but the silvered surface bulges outward instead of inward, as with the concave spherical mirror. As with all mirrors, the angle of incidence of a ray of light is equal to the angle of reflection with respect to a normal on the surface. On a curved surface the normal changes with the curvature. Therefore, the light rays will diverge from the object. If the rays of light are extrapolated back to the point where they converge, this will be the point where the image is formed. For reflections off a convex mirror, the image is virtual and upright. Use of Convex Mirrors: Convex mirrors are often used in car wing-mirrors because they have a greater field of view than a similar plane mirror. However the greater field of view is at the expense of making objects seem further away than they are in reality. Hence the expression seen etched on to the mirrors, 'Objects in Mirror are Closer than they Appear'. Concave mirrors are also used as security mirrors as they enable the viewer to see over a greater region of space another use for this mirror is used in making sunglasses and telescopes. bet you didn't know that did u ???
