Consider the arrangement shown in the figure. A black vertical arrow and a horizontal thick line with a ball are painted on a glass plate. It serves as the object. When the plate is illuminated, its real image is formed on the screen.
Which of the following correctly represents the image formed on the screen?
Show Hint
In an optical system that forms a real image, the image is always inverted relative to the object, as opposed to virtual images that are upright.
In this question, the arrangement described suggests that a real image is formed by a lens or optical system where the object consists of a vertical arrow and a horizontal line with a ball. The characteristics of the image formed are: - Since the image is real, it will be inverted. - The image should retain the relative orientation of the object but will be mirrored vertically, as real images formed by a lens are typically inverted. Therefore, the correct answer corresponds to the image formed where the image is inverted and real.
