Reflection and Mirrors — Quiz

Question 6 • Physical Science

How does a concave mirror form an image?

Answer
A
It bounces the light toward a focal point.
B
It bounces the light away from a focal point.
C
It bends the light away from a focal point.
D
It bends the light toward a focal point.

Explanation

A concave mirror reflects incoming light rays inward so that parallel rays converge at the focal point. The image forms where the reflected rays meet, or appear to meet. Choice A, “It bounces the light toward a focal point,” describes this reflection; bending is what happens with refraction, not a mirror.
