Question

Name the type of mirror (s) that should be used to obtain i) a magnified and virtual image (ii). a dimnished and virtual image of an object . Draw labelled ray diagrams to show the formation of the required image in each above two cases .which of these mirrors could also form a magnified and real image of the object ?state the position of object for which this could happen

Answer 1

1) concave mirror when object is placed between pole and focus
2) convex mirror when object is placed at any finite distance
3) the concave mirror can form a real and magnified image
: obj : between focus and centre of curvature.

Answer 2

i) convex mirror
ii) concave mirror
