    All of the following statements are correct except

    A)  The magnification produced by a convex mirror is always less then one

    B)  A virtual, erect, same sized image can be obtained by using a plane mirror

    C)  A virtual, erect, magnified image can be formed using a concave mirror

    D)  A real, inverted, same sized image can be formed using a convex mirror  

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     Here, we must first locate the image. It is found to be\[60\,\,cm\]. If the convex mirror comes in the path of the rays such that if produced they will pass through the centre of curvature of the mirror, then the rays are incident normally on the mirror and will retrace their path forming an inverted image coincidental with the object. So the required distance for inverted image is\[v-R\]. If the rays refracted from the lens are incident on the pole of mirror, the reflected rays will form erect image coincident with the object. For this, distance between the lens and the mirror should be equal to\[v\].
