Solution

The correct option is B

a concave mirror


  1. For a plane mirror, the image formed is always virtual and has the same size as the object.
  2. For a convex mirror the image is always virtual and is smaller in size than the object.
  3. For a concave mirror the nature and size of the image depends on the position of the object in front of the mirror.
  4. If the object is placed between the pole and the focus of the concave lens the image is virtual and its size is larger than the object.

Hence, the correct option is (b).
