Applications Of Reflection Of Light
When a light ray (termed as the incident ray) hits a surface and bounces back (forms a reflected ray), the process of reflection of light has taken place.
Sign Convention for Mirrors
A mirror is made of glass that is coated with a metal amalgam on one side due to which the light ray incident on the surface undergoes reflection and not refraction.

To determine

To describe: Image formed by a lens or a mirror is a real or a virtual image.

Expert Solution & Answer

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

A lens is a piece of device that is transparent and is made of either glass or plastic and mirrors are curved surface that reflects ray.

When a ray converges real image is formed and the formation of virtual image occurs where a ray diverges. Concave mirrors and converging lens produces real images if the object is places further away from the mirror or lens than the focal length.

Conclusion:

The image formed is real and virtual.
