Question

Which of the following is true about real images?

• A. They are formed when reflected rays meet at a point
• B. They can be obtained on screen
• C. They are formed when reflected rays appear to meet at a point
• D. They are formed when reflected rays and incident rays are parallel to each other.

Answer 1

The correct option is A

They are formed when reflected rays meet at a point

Real images are formed only when reflected rays meet at a point. To meet at a point the light rays must converge after reflection. They can be obtained on a screen by placing a screen at that point.
