Question

At which position on principal axis does a concave mirror forms a highly diminished, real and inverted image of an object?

• A. 2F
• B. between F and 2F
• C. F
• D. beyond 2F

Answer 1

Answer:

C. F

• A real and inverted image is formed at the focus when the object is placed at infinity.

• The size of the image is significantly smaller than that of the object.

• A concave mirror is a curved mirror where the reflecting surface is on the inner side of the curved shape.

• It has a surface that curves inward, resembling the shape of the inner surface of a hollow sphere.

• Concave mirrors are also converging mirrors because they cause light rays to converge or come together after reflection.
