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.
