An upright reversed image is produced by a plane mirror. When light rays reflect off the smooth surface of the mirror, they maintain their angles, resulting in an image that is flipped horizontally but remains upright. This effect is due to the law of reflection, where the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection. Hence, while the image appears reversed, it retains its original orientation in terms of verticality.
A plane mirror produces an upright and reversed image.
A convex mirror produces an upright and smaller image. This is because the light rays diverge upon reflection, causing the image to appear diminished in size.
An erect but virtual image of same size but with lateral inversion
Concave lens (diverging) produces an upright image that is virtual. Although to create a real upright image would require 2 convex (converging) lens with a distance of their respective focal lengths between them.
convex lens
The image formed by a plane mirror is virtual, upright, and laterally inverted. It appears to be the same distance behind the mirror as the object is in front of it.
Yes, a plane mirror produces an upright image since it does not invert the image left to right or up and down. The image appears to be the same size and orientation as the object being reflected.
The image is reversed under a microscope because of the way light is refracted by the microscope's lenses. This optical system produces an inverted image due to the way the objective and eyepiece lenses are configured. The inverted image is then corrected by the brain as it interprets the visual information from the microscope.
A convex lens
Meaning of upright image
A converging lens produces a virtual image that is upright and enlarged, while a diverging lens produces a virtual image that is upright and reduced in size. Additionally, the converging lens forms the virtual image on the same side as the object, while the diverging lens forms it on the opposite side.
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.
