NEET Physics Reflection MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about reflection and image formation is correct?
The angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection for all surfaces.
A virtual image can be projected onto a screen as it exists in space.
Total internal reflection can occur only when light travels from a rarer to a denser medium.
Images formed by concave mirrors are always real and inverted.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the laws of reflection, the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection for all surfaces. A virtual image cannot be projected onto a screen as it does not converge. Total internal reflection occurs when light travels from a denser to a rarer medium, not the other way around. Concave mirrors can form both real and virtual images depending on the object's position.
