The image formed by a mirror is always virtual the mirror will be Plane Mirror.
Additional information
→A plane mirror can be easily defined as the mirrors those are flat in surface and are without any inward or outward curve.
→ They can easily reflect light in various directions, undergoing certain phenomenon namely reflection, refraction or absorption.
→A plane mirror always forms a virtual image. A virtual image is produced when the light rays from a source don't cross or meet at a point to form an image.
→The image formed or produced by a plane mirror is always of the same size as that of the object. Besides, the image formed is also erect.
→ there can be two image formed by mirrors
1) Real image=An image formed when the light rays converge at a particular point after refraction and reflection is known as a real image.
2)Virtual image=An image formed when rays appear to meet a particular point after the reflection from the mirror is known as a virtual image.
→The first law of reflection states that the incident ray, the reflected ray, and the normal to the surface of the mirror, all lie in the same plane.
→The second law of reflection states that the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. Both angles are measured with respect to the normal to the mirror.
→In the case of a plane mirror, the angle at which the ray is reflected is equal to the angle at which the ray of light is incident, regardless of whether the image is real or virtual, where the angle of incidence is the angle formed at an imaginary surface which is normal to the mirror.
Characteristics of Plane Mirrors:
→Images formed by the plane mirrors are always virtual in nature.
→Images formed by the plane mirrors are erect/ upright and is of the same size as of the object.
→The image formed by the plane mirror is of the same size as the object.
____________________________________
→The angle of incidence and reflection are equal.
→ The reflected ray, the normal and the incident ray, they all fall in the same plane.
→There are mostly two types of reflection, one is the regular reflection, and the other is irregular reflection.
→Also, we already know that plane mirrors are primarily used to see the reflection of an object.
→ A plane mirror has several different uses and applications, including periscopes and kaleidoscopes, automobiles, shaving mirrors, dentists' mirror, torch lights, solar cookers, and security-related purposes.
