Question
An image is formed at a point from where the reflected rays meet. The image is ____.
- Virtual
- Blurred
- Real
- None of the above
Hint:
The real image originates from a single point, they create a false image.
The correct answer is: Real
- A real image is formed when light rays emanating from a point on an object meet at a physical point after being reflected by a curved mirror (or refracted by a lens).
- However, when these appear to originate from a single point, they create a false image.

An incident ray goes along the reflecting surface. The angle of reflection is ____ degrees.
When the angle along the reflecting surface , the incident ray is perpendicular to the reflecting surface. We know by the first law of reflection that angle of incidence is equal to angle of reflection . Here, the angle of incidence is 90 degrees so the angle of reflection will also be 90 degrees.
