Vedclass · Answer

(A) virtual object is formed when incident rays are converging towards a point behind the mirror. In this case,the point $P$ behind the mirror acts as a virtual object.When these rays strike the plane mirror,they are reflected and actually meet at a point $Q$ in front of the mirror.Since the reflected rays actually meet at point $Q$,the image formed at $Q$ is a real image.Therefore,the image of a virtual object due to a plane mirror is indeed real.Both the Assertion and the Reason are correct,and the Reason correctly explains why the image is real.

Assertion : The image of a virtual object due to a plane mirror is real.
Reason : If the rays seem to be converging at a point behind a plane mirror,they are reflected and they actually meet in front of the mirror.
