A plane mirror produces a magnification ...

A plane mirror produces a magnification of ….....

A

zero

B

infinite

C

`-1`

D

`+1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, D

Focal length of plane mirror is infinite.
`therefore` Magnification,
`m=(f)/(f-u)=("Infinite")/("Infinite-u")=("infinite")/("infinte")=+1`
Image will be erect and magnification will be positive.

You have learnt in the text how Huygens’ principle leads to the laws of reflection and refraction. Use the same principle to deduce directly that a point object placed in front of a plane mirror produces a virtual image whose distance from the mirror is equal to the object distance from the mirror

Use the mirror equation to deduce that: (a) an object placed between f and 2f of a concave mirror produces a real image beyond 2f. (b) a convex mirror always produces a virtual image independent of the location of the object. (c) the virtual image produced by a convex mirror is always diminished in size and is located between the focus and the pole. (d) an object placed between the pole and focus of a concave mirror produces a virtual and enlarged image.
