Mirror Characteristics A erect, same size B erect, diminished C inverted, diminished D inverted, magnified Which of the following conclusions can be drawn by Sameer about the mirrors? Correct Answer A- Plane mirror, B - Convex mirror, C - Concave mirror, D- Concave Mirror. 

Concept: 

  • A plane mirror always forms erect images of the same size as an object. 
  • A convex mirror always forms a virtual, erect, and diminished image.
  • A concave mirror can form an erect or inverted image.
  • The image formed by a concave mirror can be diminished magnified depending on the position of an object. 

Explanation:

Plane mirror: 

  • It is a planar surface coated with silver nitrate.
  • Image form by a  plane mirror is always virtual as it is due to the intersection of imaginary rays.
  •  A plane mirror always forms an upright (erect) image of an object. 
  • The size of an image is the same as an object.

Additional Information

  • Virtual images are formed due to the intersection of imaginary light rays.
  • An erect image is an upright image(not inverted).
  • When the size of the image is less than the size of an object is known as a diminished image.
