Question

Each question contains Statement I (Assertion) and Statement II (Reason). Each question has 4 choices (a), (b), (c), and (d) out of which ONLY ONE is correct. So, select the correct choice.

Assertion-Reason

Statement I: A plane mirror can form an inverted image of the real-extended object.

Statement II: A plane mirror always forms an image whose size is the same as that of the size of the object.

• A. Statement I is True, Statement II is True; Statement II is a correct explanation for Statement I
• B. Statement I is True, Statement II is True; Statement II is NOT a correct explanation for Statement I
• C. Statement I is True, Statement II is False
• D. Statement I is False, Statement II is True

Answer 1

The correct option is D

Statement I is False, Statement II is True

Step 1: Explanation for the statement I

A plane mirror can form an inverted image of the real-extended object

1. An inverted image is not formed by a plane mirror and a convex mirror.
2. An inverted image is seen only in a concave mirror.
3. So, the statement I is false

Step 2: Explanation for the statement II

A plane mirror always forms an image whose size is the same as that of the size of the object.

1. A plane mirror forms an image that is virtual, upright, and the same size as the object.
2. So, statement II is true.

So, statement I is False, and statement II is true.

Thus, option D is correct.
