When light strikes a plane mirrior , images form in locations where light does not actually reach.It only appears to the observer as though the light were coming from this position.What type of images is formed? A)real image B)virtual image C)duplicate image D)imaginary image

Respuesta :

Answer:

B)virtual image

Explanation:

A plane mirror is a flat surface that reflects light coming from an object. It works on the principle of reflection.

Reflection occurs when a ray of light hits a surface, bouncing off into the original medium at a different angle.

The image produced by a flat mirror has the following characteristics:

- It appears on the other side of the mirror, relative to the position of the image --> we say that the image is virtual (it cannot be projected on a screen)

- It is upright, as the object

- It is laterally inverted (left-right)

- It is the same size as the object in front of the mirror

Therefore, the correct option in this question is

B)virtual image

Answer:

B) virtual image

Explanation:

A virtual image is formed. A plane mirror forms a virtual image positioned behind the mirror. Although the rays of light seem to come from behind the mirror, light from the source only exists in front of the mirror. The image in a plane mirror appears to be as far behind the mirror as the object is in front of the mirror.
