Where should an object be placed in front of a convex lens to obtain an image on the same side as the object?

Define the term reflection.

Draw the ray diagram in each case to show the position,nature,and size of the image formed when the object is placed:
$(i)$ At the centre of curvature of a concave mirror.
$(ii)$ Within the focal length of a convex lens.
$(iii)$ Between the pole and focus of a concave mirror.
$(iv)$ In front of a convex mirror.
$(v)$ In front of a concave lens.

If the magnification $m$ of an image formed by a spherical mirror is negative,what is the nature of the image?

An object is placed $50\, cm$ from a lens that produces a virtual image at a distance of $10\, cm$ in front of the lens. Calculate the focal length of the lens. (in $, cm$)

$(a)$ State Snell's law of refraction.
$(b)$ When a ray of light travelling in air enters obliquely into a glass slab, it is observed that the light ray emerges parallel to the incident ray but it is shifted sideways slightly. Draw a ray diagram to illustrate it.
