The image of an object formed by a plane mirror is:(a) virtual (b) real (c) diminished (d) upside-down
(a) virtual
Explanation with the image is posted for reference only.
The image formed by a plane mirror is virtual, erect (upright), of the same size as the object, at the same distance behind the mirror and laterally inverted.
The virtual images form when the light rays appear to meet at a definite point, after reflection from the mirror, and it cannot be projected or obtained on a screen.
