Question

State whether the following statement is True or False.

A concave mirror always forms a real image

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

A concave mirror also forms a virtual image when the object is kept between the focus and the pole of the mirror.
In all the other cases, image formed by a concave mirror is real.
Hence, a concave mirror forms both real and virtual image depending on the position of the object on the principal axis.
Hence, the correct answer is OPTION B.
