An object AB is placed parallel and close to the optical axis between focus F and center of curvature C of a converging mirror of focale length f as shown in Figure. Then,

A

Image of A will be closer than that of B from the mirror.

B

Image of AB will be parallel to the optical axis.

C

Image of AB will be a straight line inclined to the optical axis.

D

Image of AB will not be a straight line.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a.,c.

The image of a point closer to the focus will be farther. As the transverse magnification of B will be more than A, the image of AB will be inclined to the optical axis.
