NEET Physics Reflection MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Hard-Class 12

Which of the following statements about reflection and image formation is correct?

A

The angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection for all surfaces.

B

A virtual image can be projected onto a screen as it exists in space.

C

Total internal reflection can occur only when light travels from a rarer to a denser medium.

D

Images formed by concave mirrors are always real and inverted.

Correct Answer

Option A

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.
