Question

9. The image formed, when you were looking at the outer surface of the spoon by
bringing this surface near your face, was
A) erect
B) virtualC) smaller in size
D) all of these

Answer 1

The image will be erect, virtual and smaller in size. (all of these)

• The outer shiny surface of a spoon acts as a convex mirror and when we are keeping our face near the spoon surface, we are following the principle of keeping object at a finite distance from the convex mirror.
• In such case, the image will be always erect and virtual.
• And, as the object is at a finite distance, the produced image will be smaller than the main object.
• So, "all of these" will be the correct answer of this question.
