Question

When a convergent beam of light falls incident on a plane mirror, the image formed is

Inverted and real
Inverted and virtual
Erect and real
Erect and virtual

Answer 1

Ans . On a plane mirror real and erect image is formed

Answer 2

Answer:

Erect and real

Explanation:

Although virtual object does not exit, a convergent beam of light refers to a point virtual object which is imagined to lie behind the mirror. This incident convergent light rays converge at this point. This virtual object has an image in front of the plane mirror of the same size and at the same distance in front of the plane mirror as the point of convergence behind the mirror. Since the point of intersection of the light ray is real, the image formed will be real. The ray diagram for this case has been attached with it.
