1. Which type of mirror produces an image that is always virtual, upright, and smaller than the object?
Plane mirror
Concave mirror
Convex mirror
Both concave and convex
2. What happens to light rays when they strike a concave mirror?
They diverge (spread out).
They converge (come together).
They pass through the mirror.
They are absorbed by the mirror.
1. A plane mirror always forms a real image.
True
False
2. Convex mirrors are often used as rearview mirrors in vehicles.
True
False
1. The reflection of light from a smooth, polished surface like a mirror is called reflection.
2. A mirror that curves inward, like the inside of a spoon, is a mirror.
