Spherical mirrors are a special type of curved mirrors in which the surface of the mirror forms a part of a sphere. A highly polished curved surface whose reflecting surface is a cut part of a hollow sphere of a glass or any polished metal is called spherical mirror.
The figure below shows the various terms used for spherical mirrors are:
1. Centre of Curvature (C) : It is the centre of sphere of which the mirror is a part.
2. Radius of Curvature (R) : It is the radius of the sphere of which the mirror is a part.
3. Pole (P) : It is the geometrical centre of the spherical reflecting surface,
4. Principal axis : It is the straight line joining the centre of curvature to the pole.
5. Focus (F) : When a narrow beam of rays of light, parallel to the principal axis and close to it (know as paraxial rays), is incident on the surface of a mirror, the reflected beam is found to converge (concave mirror) or appear to diverge (convex mirror ) from a point principal axis. This point is called focus.
6. Focal Length (f) : It is the distance between the pole and the principal focus. For spherical mirrors
7. Linear Aperture: It is the diameter of the spherical mirror. It is denoted by the distance between A and B.
8. Angular Aperture: It is the angle which the diameter of the spherical mirror subtends at the centre of the hollow sphere of which the spherical mirror is a part.. It is denoted by the angle ACB in the figure.

About Abhyas metholodology the teachers are very nice and hardworking toward students.The Centre Head Mrs Anu Sethi is also a brilliant teacher.Abhyas has taught me how to overcome problems and has always taken my doubts and suppoeted me.
It was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
A marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
Abhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
Abhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
My experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
