Correct option is A
Correct Answer: A. ∞ (infinity)
Information Booster
- A plane mirror is a flat mirror with no curvature.
- The radius of curvature (R) is the radius of the sphere of which the mirror is a part.
- For a plane mirror, this radius is infinite because the mirror surface is flat, not curved.
- Hence, the radius of curvature R=∞.
Additional Information
- For concave or convex mirrors, radius of curvature is finite and related to focal length by:
R=2f
- Plane mirrors always form virtual, erect, and same size images.
- Their focal length is also considered infinite because f=R/2=∞/2=∞.
