    The mirror used for the head light of a car is

    A)  Spherical concave

    B)  plane

    C)  Cylindrical

    D)  parabolic concave

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] Parabolic reflectors are used to collect energy from a distant source (for example sound waves or incoming star light) and bring it to a common focal point, thus correcting spherical aberration found in simpler spherical reflectors. Since the principles of reflection are reversible, parabolic reflectors can also be used to project energy of a source at its focus outward in parallel beam, used in devices such as spotlights and car headlights.
