The distance of an object from the pole ...

The distance of an object from the pole of a concave mirror is equal to its radius of curvature. The image must be:

A

real

B

inverted

C

same sized

D

erect

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

If object is at centre then image forms on the centre, and real and if object is virtual then image forms at `V=-R/3` (in both the cases image is real)
