The circular boundary of the concave mirror subtends a cone of half-angle $\theta$ at its centre of curvature. The minimum value of $\theta$ for which a ray incident on this mirror parallel to the principal axis suffers more than one reflection is......$^o$

In an experiment to determine the focal length $(f)$ of a concave mirror by the parallax method,a student places the object pin $\text{A}$ on the principal axis at a distance $x$ from the pole $\text{P}$. The student looks at the pin and its inverted image from a distance,keeping his/her eye in line with $\text{PA}$. When the student shifts his/her eye towards the left,the image appears to the right of the pin. Then:

The relation between the linear magnification $m$,the object distance $u$,and the focal length $f$ is:

Use the mirror equation to deduce that:
$(a)$ an object placed between $f$ and $2f$ of a concave mirror produces a real image beyond $2f$.
$(b)$ a convex mirror always produces a virtual image independent of the location of the object.
$(c)$ the virtual image produced by a convex mirror is always diminished in size and is located between the focus and the pole.
$(d)$ an object placed between the pole and focus of a concave mirror produces a virtual and enlarged image.

The focal length of a concave mirror is $20 \ cm$. Determine where an object must be placed to form an image,magnified two times and real.

When an object is placed at a distance of $25 \ cm$ from a concave mirror,the magnification is $m_1$. The object is moved $15 \ cm$ farther away with respect to the earlier position and the magnification becomes $m_2$. If $m_1/m_2 = 4$,the focal length of the mirror is $....... \ cm$ (Assume image is real and $m_1, m_2$ are numerical values).
