BeginnerMCQConceptual16.1k
A horizontal dashed line extending left to right represents the principal axis of an optical system. On the right half of the axis, a thin vertical arc curves outward toward the left, representing a convex mirror. To the left of the mirror, an upright arrow labeled object stands vertically on the principal axis. To the right of the mirror, two small vertical tick marks are located on the principal axis; the first tick mark is labeled F and the second tick mark farther to the right is labeled C. No ray lines, back-extensions, or image arrows appear anywhere in the diagram. No other labels, lines, text, or axes appear.
