True or false when you look at the image of a candle in a plane mirror, you see a real image?

false, the image is virtual (behind the mirror) and unable to be projected on a screenTrue or false when you look at the image of a candle in a plane mirror, you see a real image?
A plane mirror makes an image called a virtual image. Light rays appear to emanate from virtual images, but that is not really the case. A standard ';test'; for a virtual image is whether or not it can be projected onto a screen. If you placed a screen at the point behind the mirror where the image appears, would you see an image on the screen? By contrast, there are images from which light really emanates, such as an image created by a movie projector lens. A real image can be projected onto a screen.True or false when you look at the image of a candle in a plane mirror, you see a real image?
False. Images in mirrors are 'virtual' images.


A real image is one you can actually project on a screen


(like by using a lens).
