Question

A convex mirror is used to form an image of a real object. Then, mark the wrong statement.

• A. The image will lie between the pole and the focus.
• B. The image will be diminished in size.
• C. The image will be erect.
• D. The image may be real.

Answer 1

The correct option is D The image may be real.

For a convex mirror, a virtual image is always formed for a real object and real image/virtual image can be formed for a virtual object.

Virtual image formed by a convex mirror for a real object will always be diminished and erect (w.r.t object).

Thus, option (d) is the only incorrect statement.
