Assertion : Concave mirror can produce virtual image of virtual object.
Reason : Convex mirror cannot form image of virtual object.

Options

A. If both assertion and reason are correct and rason is a correct explanation of the assertion.
B. If both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
C. If assertion is correct but reason is incorrect.
D. If both assertion and reason are incorrect.

Answer

To solve the given question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided.

### Step 1: Understanding the Assertion
- The assertion states that a concave mirror can produce a virtual image of a virtual object.
- A virtual object is formed when the rays of light appear to diverge from a point behind the mirror. In the case of a concave mirror, it typically converges light rays to form real images. However, if the object is virtual (i.e., the rays appear to come from a point behind the mirror), the concave mirror cannot produce a virtual image from this virtual object. Thus, the assertion is **incorrect**.

### Step 2: Understanding the Reason
- The reason states that a convex mirror cannot form an image of a virtual object.
- A convex mirror always diverges light rays. When light rays diverge, they appear to come from a point behind the mirror, which means that they can indeed form virtual images. Therefore, the statement that a convex mirror cannot form an image of a virtual object is also **incorrect**.

### Step 3: Conclusion
- Since both the assertion and the reason are incorrect, the final conclusion is that both the assertion and the reason are false.

### Final Answer
Both the assertion and the reason are incorrect.
