The image formed by a concave mirror
A. Is always real

B. Is always virtual

C. Is certainly real if the object is virtual

D. Is certainly virtual if the object is real

If a piece of paper is placed at the position of a virtual image of a strong light source, will the paper burn after sufficient time? What happens if the image is real? What happens if the image is real but the source is virtual?

If a spherical mirror is dipped in water, does its focal length change?

Can mirrors give rise to chromatic aberration?

A point source S is placed midway between two converging mirrors having equal focal length f as shown in figure (18-E3). Find the values of d for which only one image is formed.

A converging mirror M1, a point source S and a diverging mirror M₂ are arranged as shown in figure (18-E4). The source is placed at a distance of 30 cm for M₁. The focal length of each of the mirrors is 20 cm. Consider only the images formed by a maximum of two reflections. It is found that one image is formed on the source itself. (a) Find the distance between the two mirrors. (b) Find the location of the image formed by the single reflection from M₂.

In motor vehicles, a convex mirror is attached near the driver’s seat to give him the view of the traffic behind. What is the special function of this convex mirror which a plane mirror cannot do?

Can a virtual image be photographed by a camera?

Can a plane mirror ever form a real image?

A point object is placed at a distance of 30 cm from a convex mirror of focal length 30 cm. The image will form at

A point source of light is placed in front of a plane mirror.
