When a beam of light from an object appears to meet at a point after reflection
When a beam of light from an object appears to meet at a point after reflection from a mirror then the image formed is known as:
- A. Real image
- B. Virtual image
- C. Incident image
- D. All
Step-by-step solution
Light rays from the object appear to meet at a point after reflection, but they do not actually converge; they only seem to come from that point. This defines a virtual image, as opposed to a real image where light rays actually converge.
