Question

Write. the difference between virtual and real image in plane mirror saperately

Answer 1

The following are the differences between a real image and virtual image:

1. A real image can be caught on a screen. 1. virtual imagecannot be caught on a screen.

2.A real image is always inverted.
2. virtual image is always erect.

3A real image is formed when the rays of light after reflection or refraction actually meet at some point.
3.virtual image is formed when the rays of light after reflection or refraction appear to meet at a point.

4.A real image is formed by the actual intersection of light rays.
4. virtual image is formed by the imaginary intersection of light rays.

5.A real image can be formed in in a in screen .
5.virtual image can be only seen in the mirror.

6.A real image is formed by only concave mirror.
6. virtual image can be formed by concave, convex and plane mirror also.

Answer 2

Real Image

Real images are produced by intersecting rays.

Real images can be projected on a screen

Real images are formed by two opposite lens, concave and convex.

Real images are always inverted

Real images are created when rays of light are converged by a convex lens also known as converging lens.

The image is formed on the right-hand side of the lens.

Virtual Image

The image that cannot be obtained on a screen is known as virtual image.

A virtual image is created when rays of light diverge from a concave lens.

A virtual image is formed on the left-hand side of the lens.

Virtual image are produced by diverging rays

Virtual image cannot be projected on screen

Virtual images are always upright while real images are always inverted.
