Question

For a concave mirror (more than one option is correct)
a) virtual image is always larger in size
b) real image is always smaller in size
c) real image is always larger in size
d) real image may be smaller (or) larger in size​

Answer 1

Answer:

a and a are correct for a concave mirror

Answer 2

Option a) and c) are correct .

Let's see a detailed explanation:

• Concave mirrors are converging mirrors that are able to converge light rays towards each other.

• Now, concave mirrors are able to form virtual image only when the object is placed in between the pole and the focus of the mirror. In that case, the virtual image produced is always magnified and larger in size.

• In all other cases, concave mirrors produce a real image which may be magnified or diminished based on the object distance from the mirror.

For example : when object is placed beyond the centre of curvature, the image produced by the concave mirror will be real and diminished.
