NEET Physics Question - Ray Optics - Reflection by Spherical Mirrors

Assertion (A): Concave mirror can't form virtual image of a virtual object.

Reason (R): Convex mirror can't form real image of a real object.

(1) Both (A) & (R) are true and the (R) is the correct explanation of the (A)

(2) Both (A) & (R) are true but the (R) is not the correct explanation of the (A)

(3) (A) is true but (R) is false

(4) Both (A) and (R) are false

Solution:

Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are false. A concave mirror can form a virtual image of a virtual object if the object is between its pole and focus. A convex mirror can form a real image of a virtual object, for example, if the virtual object is placed between its pole and focus.
