Cheese XD
A plane mirror produces an upright and reversed image.
A plane mirror does not produce magnification on an object. It produces a virtual image that is the same size as the object and has the same distance behind the mirror as the object is in front of the mirror.
A plane mirror produces an upright and laterally inverted image that is the same size as the object. A concave mirror produces a real or virtual, inverted or upright image that can be larger or smaller than the object depending on the object's position relative to the mirror. A convex mirror produces a virtual, upright, and smaller image compared to the object, regardless of the object's position relative to the mirror.
A plane mirror does not form a real image. It produces a virtual image, which appears to be behind the mirror and is the same size and orientation as the object being reflected.
"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.
No, a plane mirror does not flip an image upside down. It produces a mirror image that is laterally inverted, meaning left and right are switched, but top and bottom remain the same.
It is a line of symmetry or a reflection on the Cartesian plane that produces a mirror image.
A plane mirror produces a virtual image that is upright and the same size as the object being reflected. The image appears to be the same distance behind the mirror as the object is in front of it.
A plane mirror produces a virtual upright image that is the same size as the object, with no distortion. It reflects light rays at the same angle as they strike the mirror. The image in a plane mirror appears to be the same distance behind the mirror as the object is in front of it.
Actually a plane mirror inverts an image not side to side, but front to back. If you hold up your right hand in front of a mirror, the images of the parts of your hand closest to you will be the farthest away. It is this inversion that turns a left hand into a right hand, while leaving the thumbs on both hands pointing in the same direction.
An erect but virtual image of same size but with lateral inversion
A concave mirror when the object is placed between the focal point and the mirror will produce an erect, diminished, and virtual image. This type of mirror is commonly used in makeup mirrors and shaving mirrors.
