What types of image can concave mirrors from?
A concave mirror can show both vitual and real images, a plane mirror can show virtual and so can a convex mirror. 0.0
What are the three use of a plain mirror?
to see our face to make real image to make virtual image
How can a real image be distinguished from a virtual image and can each type of image be projected on screen?
If an image can be formed on screen it is classified as real. Virtual images cannot be projected on an image.
Differentiate real image from virtual image?
Real images can be obtained on the screen,whereas virtual images can't be obtained on the screen
When is the image said to be real or virtual image?
An image is called real if the light rays coming from a point(point on object) meet at a point after reflection or refraction. An image is virtual if the light rays do not actually meet after reflection or refraction. These rays appear to come from a point which is the point where we say virtual image is formed.
Images formed by a plane mirror?
A plane mirror forms 1 virtual image and no real image. The virtual image is behind the mirror, at the same distance as the object in front of the mirror, erect, in mirror image left-right.
does a plane mirror produces a real image?
"Real" and "virtual" are two opposite, mutually exclusive categories of images. An image is either one or the other, and no image can be both. The image produced by a plane mirror is a virtual one.
Pictures of real image formed by plane mirror?
When the incident light rays are falling towards the mirror in such a way that the light rays after falling on the mirror meet at any point in front of the mirror than an image is formed in front of the mirror which can be taken on a screen and as the image can be taken on a screen it is known as a real image. So, plane mirrors can form real images.
Why is the image of an object reflected from plane mirror called a virtual image?
Because the image is not real. The object is not really there, it's only virtual.
What kind of image is formed in the plane mirror?
An image in a plane mirror is created by the light rays reflecting off the reflective surface of a mirror. The image is always virtual because the light rays remain parallel, meaning they never pass through a focal point. The image is actual size, inverted, and always virtual. When light strikes a plane mirror, the angle of incidence will always equal the angle of reflection.
How is your image in a plane mirror different from the real you?
The image is virtual and appears to be as much behind the mirror as the distance a person is away from the mirror.
Why does image formed in a plane mirror is always virtual?
the ray that passes from the object, when gets reflected from the plane mirror,the imaginary ray that passes from the mirror meets at a point behind mirror but the original do not meet actually.so the image formed by plane mirror is virtual.
Does a Convex mirror form a virtual or real image?
A virtual image.
Is it plain mirror or concave mirror producing magnified real image?
A plane (flat) mirror reflects an image which is the same size and shape, and colour as the object in front of the mirror. A concave mirror can produce a magnified image. If the image is in front of the mirror it is a real image; if behind it is a virtual (non-real) image. A real image can be cast upon a white the best) surface
What type of image is produced by the mirror?
virtual and real image
What types of image can concave mirrors from?
A concave mirror can show both vitual and real images, a plane mirror can show virtual and so can a convex mirror. 0.0
Is the image in a plane mirror real?
NO its not
