1. An object is placed on the principal axis of a concave mirror of focal length 10 cm at a distance of 8 cm from the pole. Find position and nature of the image :
2. Assertion (A): The focal length of a spherical mirror does not depend on the wavelength of light. Reason (R): In case of reflection of light from a denser medium the phase changes by \(\pi\).  
3. A linear object is placed along the axis of a mirror as shown in fig. If ‘f’ is the focal length of the mirror then the length of image is 
4. Assertion (A): The formula \(\frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f}\) connecting u and v for a spherical mirror is valid only for mirrors whose sizes are very small compared to their radii of curvatures. Reason (R): Laws of reflection are strictly valid for smaller size of optical system.  
5. Assertion (A): Rear view mirror of a vehicle is a convex mirror. Reason (R): It never makes real image of real objects.
