Question

Mark ‘T’ if the statement is true and ‘F’ if it is false: We can obtain a real, enlarged and inverted image by a concave mirror. (T/F)

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Concave Mirror:

1. A curved mirror where its surface is concave in nature, or the reflecting surface is curved inwards is called a concave mirror.
2. Due to this inward curve shape of the mirror, it is able to reflect light towards a central focal point.
3. Therefore, when a light ray suffers reflection from a concave mirror, it converges the light rays.
4. Hence, they form a good device for focusing light.
5. Due to this property, they mostly form real and enlarged images.
6. A concave mirror is also capable of forming a real, enlarged, and inverted image when the object is placed between the center of curvature of the mirror and its focus.

Hence, the given statement is true.
