Q512

If you look into a mirror and find that the image (your reflection) is smaller than you, then the type of the mirror is:

A.
Concave mirror
B.
Convex mirror
Answer
C.
Plano-concave mirror
D.
Plane mirror

Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
A convex mirror bends light as it reflects the light, and the farther away a point is from the center, the more the light is bent. As a result, an image formed in a convex mirror is smaller than an image in a plane (flat) mirror.
