A mirror image is formed by the reflection of light off a surface, where the left and right sides are reversed, creating a symmetrical appearance. In contrast, a real image is produced when light rays converge and can be projected onto a screen; it can be inverted and is not limited to reflective surfaces. While mirror images appear to exist behind the mirror, real images exist in space where light converges. Mirror images are virtual and cannot be captured on a screen, whereas real images can be.
A concave mirror can create a 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
The image in a plane mirror is laterally inverted, meaning left and right are flipped. It also appears to be the same distance behind the mirror as you are in front of it. Additionally, the image has no depth perception.
No, an image formed in a mirror is unreal, because mirror reflects all the light rays off.
"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 its not
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.
No, a plane mirror cannot form a real image. It forms a virtual image that appears to be behind the mirror at the same distance as the object is in front of it.
No, to get a real image from a mirror it must be able to focus light (which flat mirrors can't do).
A convex mirror always forms a virtual image, meaning that the light rays appear to be coming from a point behind the mirror. Thus, a real image is never formed by a convex mirror.
Concave mirror is used to a real image as big as real object. If the object is placed at center of curvature , then real image is formed at the same center of curvature.
A plain mirror produces a virtual image. This means the image appears to be behind the mirror and cannot be projected onto a screen.
