STANDARD Physics Mirrors MCQ Question
The direction of ray of light incident on a concave mirror is shown by PQ while directions in which the ray would travel after reflection is shown by four rays marked 1, 2, 3 and 4. Which of the four rays correctly shows the direction of reflected ray?
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
Correct Answer
