    Question

    In the following table, mirror, its application and the justification for the application are given. Identify the rows in which the information is completely correct, with regard to given spherical mirrors in column 2.


    Mirror
    Application
    Justification
    1
    Concave
    Dentist Mirro
    Virtual,Erect and Magnified Image
    2
    Convex
    Street light
    Diverge the light rays hence wider field of view is possible
    3
    Concave
    Solar Furnace
    Converages light rays from a distance source like sun
    4
    Convex
    Rearview Mirrors
    Virtual, erect and enlarged images are formed

    A.

    1,2,3 and 4

    B.

    Only 1

    C.

    Only 1 and 2

    D.

    Only 1,2 and 3

    Correct option is D

    Correct Answer: D

    Explanation: In the table, the information is completely correct for the following rows:

    • Row 1: Concave mirror used as a Dentist mirror to produce a virtual, erect, and magnified image, which is correct.
    • Row 2: Convex mirror used for Street light application, where it diverges light rays, providing a wider field of view, which is correct.
    • Row 3: Concave mirror used as a Solar furnace, converging light rays from a distant source like the sun, which is also correct.

    However, Row 4 is incorrect because the statement about Convex mirrors forming virtual, erect, and enlarged images is not true. Convex mirrors always produce virtual, erect, and diminished images, not enlarged ones.

    Information Booster:

    • Concave mirrors (in Row 1 and 3) are used for magnification and focusing light, which is why they are used in applications like dental mirrors and solar furnaces.
    • Convex mirrors (in Row 2 and 4) are often used in applications requiring a wide field of view, such as streetlights and rearview mirrors. They produce diminished, virtual, and upright images.
