Question

Which of the following statement(s) is /are valid for plane mirror only?

• A. Real object gives virtual image
• B. Virtual object gives real image
• C. Real object gives real image
• D. Virtual object gives virtual image

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B)

Virtual object gives real image

For the case of plane mirror, real object always gives a virtual image $\&$ a virtual object always gives a real image.


Hence, options (a) and (b) are the correct alternatives.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Note :- This is valid only for a plane mirror.}\\ \text{Point to remember :- A real image is formed by a real object placed infront of a concave mirror}\end{array}$
