A girl is standing in front of a magic mirror.

Question:

A girl is standing in front of a magic mirror. She finds the image of her head bigger, the middle portion of her body of the same size and that of the

legs smaller. The order of combinations for the magic mirror from the top is :

(a) Convex, plane and concave

(b) Plane, convex and concave

(c) Concave, plane and convex

(d) Convex, concave and plane.

Solution:

(c).

Explanation : Concave mirror forms a magnified (enlarged) image of the object if the object is placed close to the concave mirror (i.e. a distance

less than its focal length). Plane mirror always forms the mage of the same size as that of the object.
