I believe you might be referring to an "Optical Illusion".

When the reflection of an object is seen in a concave mirror the image will?

always be real.


Can a real image be seen if you place a screen where the image is focused?

Yes. That's a good quick way to determine whether or not a real image exists. You can also use a piece of thin tissue paper, kleenex, or toilet paper, and see the image from the other side. Put a piece of photosensitive material there at the real image, and you get a permanent photo.


What is the difference between real and virtual image?

Real image can be caught on a screen. But virtual cannot be caugtht so Real image is formed due to convergence of rays but in case of virtual there are only diverging rays and so they appear to diverge from one point where virtual image is located But both real and virtual could be seen by human eyes. Same way real object would definitely give out diverging rays But virtual object is considered as converging rays are assumed to come from such virtual object


What is an image called that reflects light through a focal point?

An image doesn't reflect light.An image that forms in a focal plane ... and could be seen if there'sa piece of tissue or a puff of smoke at that place ... is a "real" image.


Difference between real and virtual focus?

A real image can be captured on a screen (eg white paper) whereas a virtual image cannot.To see an image on a screen light rays must come to a focus on the screen, but with a virtual image no actual light rays come together at the location of the image .. hence a virtual image cannot be seen on a screen.A real image is a source of light energy .. rays of light radiate from it.A virtual image is not a source of light energy.. rays of light do not radiate from it ( although it's where the brain 'thinks' the light originated.)

In which direction does it rotate?

It rotates to the left only when seen upside right through our relative image of Earth. The sun seems to go from rising from the west to setting in the east.

What is the difference between direct and indirect ophthalmoscope?

direct opthalmoscope:- 1. magnify 15 times 2.central retina only seen 3. virtual & erect image indirect ophthalmoscope:- 1. magnify 5 times 2. peripheral retina seen 3. real & inverted image


What are the examples for real and virtual images?

example of Real Images are the images seen on screen on cinema and image form in the human retina. also image produced on the camera. An example of a Virtual image is your image in a flat bathroom mirror. The light rays reflect away from the mirrors and do not actually pass through the image of yourself. The general rule of thumb to follow is: if the light rays ACTUALLY pass through the image, then it is a real image.

What is the relationship between the type and the attitude of an image?

the relationship is that in order to have an image u have to have a special type of attituede like nice and sweet also it ddepends on the type of person and there attitude ^^^ Don't listen to this whatsoever. Now, the attitude of the image describes whether the image is upright or inverted, correct? And the type of image is real or virtual. Now, the relationship between the two is the same for all types of mirrors/lenses. With concave mirrors, when the image is real then it is inverted, whereas when it's virtual it is upright. With convex mirrors when the image is virtual it is also upright, and although I haven't seen a real image on convex mirror ray diagrams, theoretically if the image was real it would be inverted. With a diverging lens if the image is virtual it is upright and as with the convex lens although I have never seen a real image on a ray diagram for a diverging lens it would theoretically be inverted. Finally, with a converging lens if the image is real then it's inverted and if it's virtual it is upright. So, the relationship between attitude and image is this: If the type of image is real, the attitude of the image is inverted. If the type of image is virtual, the attitude of the image is upright.


What does it mean when you dream of a black man you have never met that likes you?

It only means that you have seen attractive black men, perhaps in real life or in the media. The man in your dream is only an image that represents qualities that you like. He is not real and does not represent anyone you will meet in the future; he is quite literally a figment of your imagination.


What does real image mean?

The fact is that virtual images are the only ones we see directly with the eye. It is very difficult to see a full real image, you can only see parts of it. A virtual image is one where the light rays appear to come from a points in space. The eye can't tell the difference between light rays that come from a point on a real object, and light rays that approach the eye in the exact same angles as ones from that point on a object. I can take an object you are looking at, remove it but replace it with light sources that duplicate the angles that points on that object produce light, and you could not see the difference. The reason is that the only way we see the object is from the light coming from it and if we can "simulate" that light we will make that object appear real to the eye. The same happens with real images, because the light from a real image also replicates the angles of the light from an object, but the light is limited lo a small range because of the lens aperture, so we can only see parts of the image (the light cones defining a real image are narrow and limited by the lens aperture). NOTE: a screen makes a real image visible by scattering the light from the image so that it can be seen from a wide range of angles.
