The correct Answer is:
To determine which type of mirror can produce a virtual image that is larger than the object, we need to analyze the properties of different types of mirrors. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Image Formation**: - A virtual image is formed when the light rays appear to diverge from a point behind the mirror. 2. **Types of Mirrors**: - **Plane Mirror**: Produces a virtual image that is the same size as the object. - **Concave Mirror**: Can produce a virtual image that is larger than the object when the object is placed between the focal point and the mirror. - **Convex Mirror**: Always produces a virtual image that is smaller than the object. 3. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Plane Mirror**: As mentioned, it produces an image of the same size. - **Concave Mirror**: When the object is placed within the focal length (closer to the mirror than the focal point), the image produced is virtual and larger than the object. - **Convex Mirror**: Always produces a virtual image that is smaller than the object. 4. **Conclusion**: - The only type of mirror that can produce a virtual image larger than the object is the **Concave Mirror** when the object is placed between the focal point and the mirror. ### Final Answer: A virtual image larger than the object can be produced by a **Concave Mirror**. ---
