explain the difference between real and virtual images.


ShreyaAgarwal83: Real image: 1 A real image is one in which light rays actually intersect and pass through the image point. 2 A real image can be obtained on a screen. 3 A real image is always inverted and is formed in front of the mirror. virtual image :. 1 A virtual image is always erect and is formed behind the mirror. 2 A virtual image can't be obtained on a screen. 3 A virtual image is one in which the light rays do not really passes through the image point but appear to diverge from that point.

A real image is formed at a point where the reflection of light is converged.
It is formed in front of the mirror.
It is always inverted.

A virtual image is formed at a point where the reflected rays appear to diverge.
It is formed behind the mirror.
It is always erect.

HOPE IT HELPS.

Differences :


⇒ A real image is formed due to actual intersection of the light rays.

⇒ A virtual image is formed when the light ray is produced backwards and not actually meeting.


⇒ A real image is always inverted .

⇒ A virtual image is always erect.


⇒ A real image cannot be formed in a concave lens.

⇒ A virtual image can be formed in a concave lens.


⇒ A real image can be obtained on the screen.

⇒ A virtual image cannot be obtained on the screen.


⇒ Example of real image is an image of distant object formed by a convex lens.

⇒ Examples of virtual image is an image formed by concave lens .
