Question:

Match List - I with List - II
 

List - I (Parameter)List - II (Definition)
A. Field viewI. Distance from the center of mirror to focal point.
B. Focal lengthII. Center of the sphere of which the mirror's surface is a part.
C. Center of curvatureIII. Curving a plane mirror such that its surface is flexed out.
D. Convex mirrorIV. The extent of the scene that is reflected to the observer.

Show Hint

Convex mirrors are used as rear-view mirrors in vehicles specifically because they provide a much wider field of view compared to plane or concave mirrors.

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Concept: Understanding basic terminology in spherical mirrors is essential for solving optics problems.

Step 1:
Match each term with its correct definition.

A. Field view: This refers to how much of the surrounding area can be seen in the mirror. (Match with IV)
B. Focal length: By definition, it is the distance between the pole (center) of the mirror and the principal focus. (Match with I)
C. Center of curvature: The center of the hollow glass sphere from which the mirror was cut. (Match with II)
D. Convex mirror: A mirror where the reflecting surface is curved outwards (flexed out). (Match with III)
