Given
I. Plane mirrors
II. Concave mirrors
III. Convex mirrors
Given the preceding choices, virtual images can be formed by:
Show Hint
Virtual images are always formed by plane and convex mirrors, and concave mirrors form virtual images only when the object is closer than the focal point.

- II only
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
In all mirrors, virtual images are formed when the object is placed at a distance closer than the focal point.
- Plane mirrors always form virtual images that are the same size as the object and appear behind the mirror. - Concave mirrors can form virtual images if the object is placed closer than the focal point. - Convex mirrors always form virtual images regardless of the object's position. Thus, virtual images can be formed by Plane mirrors and Convex mirrors.
Thus, the correct answer is (c).
- Plane mirrors always form virtual images that are the same size as the object and appear behind the mirror. - Concave mirrors can form virtual images if the object is placed closer than the focal point. - Convex mirrors always form virtual images regardless of the object's position. Thus, virtual images can be formed by Plane mirrors and Convex mirrors.
Thus, the correct answer is (c).
