The diagram in a Fig. shows a point object $P$ in front of a plane mirror $M M_{1}$ .
$(a)$ Complete the diagram by taking two rays from the point $P$ to show the formation of its image.
$(b)$ In the diagram, mark the position of a eye to see the image.
$(c)$ Is the image formed real or virtual ? Explain why ?

Solution

(a)The above figure shows the complete diagram.
(b)The position of eye is marked at P.
(c)Image formed is virtual.Because the light rays appeared to be coming from that point and they don't actually intersect.
