Question

In the figure shown, the image of a real object O is formed at point I. AB is the principal axis of the mirror. The mirror must be:

  1. concave & placed towards right of I    
  2. concave & placed towards left of I A d subscript 1 end subscript d subscript 2 end subscript    
  3. convex & placed towards right of I    
  4. convex & placed towards left of I.    

The correct answer is: convex & placed towards left of I.


    The image is erect hence, mirror must be between object & image. Virtual image of real object is diminished, hence mirror is convex.

    Light guidance in an optical fiber can be understood by considering a structure comprising of thin solid glass cylinder of refractive index n subscript 1 end subscript surrounded by a medium of lower refractive index n subscript 2 end subscript . The light guidance in the structure takes place due to successive total internal reflections at the interface of the media n subscript 1 end subscript and n subscript 2 end subscript as shown in the figure. All rays with the angle of incidence i less than a particular value im are confined in the medium of refractive index n subscript 1 end subscript . The numerical aperture (NA) of the structure is defined as sin im .
