How many minimum rays are needed to construct an image by a spherical mirror?

Only two rays are needed to construct an image by a spherical mirror: one ray parallel to the principal axis that passes through the focal point after reflection, and one ray passing through the focal point before reflection which then becomes parallel to the principal axis after reflection.


An example of a converging spherical mirror is a?

concave mirror, like those found in makeup mirrors or reflecting telescopes.


Does a broken piece of a spherical mirror works as another spherical mirror?

Yes, spherical mirror is the part of a spherical reflecting surface.when it is broken the broken piece is also the part of the spherical reflecting surface.


Is plane mirror a spherical mirror why?

plane mirror is never a spherical mirror,spherical mirrors are made up by cutting the part of the sherical balls and then polishing them.while the plane mirror is just a sheet of polished glass

What is the center of spherical mirror is called?

The center of a spherical mirror is called the vertex. This is the point where the principal axis intersects the mirror's surface.


Is a hubcap a converging spherical mirror?

No, a hubcap is not a converging spherical mirror. A hubcap is a protective covering for the center of a vehicle's wheel, while a converging spherical mirror is a mirror that curves inwards to focus light rays at a point.


What are convex mirrors and how images look in it?

A convex surface means bulging out surface. A convex mirror is that spherical mirror in whichthe reflection of light takes place at the bulging out surface.A spherical mirror which is polished from hollow side, such that its reflecting surface is towards outer sideis called convex mirror. Example:-spoon


Is a spherical mirror and concave mirror the same thing?

No, a spherical mirror is a general term that refers to a mirror with a curved surface, while a concave mirror specifically has a reflective surface that curves inward, like the inside of a sphere. Concave mirrors can be one type of spherical mirror, along with convex mirrors.


What is the center of spherical mirror?

The geometric centre of a spherical mirror is called its pole. The centre of the hollow sphere for which the mirror is a part, is called the centre of curvature. The line joining the centre of curvature and the pole is the principal axis. A light ray incident on a spherical mirror, after reflection appears to pass through the principal focus in the case of a convex mirror and passes through the focus in the case of concave mirror. The diameter of the spherical mirror gives the measure of its aperture
