Solution

The correct option is B

Virtual image is always magnified


In concave mirrors, a virtual image is formed only when the object is placed between the focus and the pole. This always produces a virtual image and is always magnified. The other cases, however, are not true. Real images produced by a concave mirror can be both magnified and diminished.
