ASSERTION REASON TYPE QUESTIONS
Following questions consists of two statements – Assertion (A) and Reason (R). Answer these
questions selecting the appropriate option given below:
A. Both assertion and reason are true, and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
B. Both assertion and reason are true, but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
C. Assertion is true but reason is false.
D. Assertion is false and reason is true.

1. Assertion: A concave mirror can form a real and inverted image.


Reason: Concave mirrors converge light rays.
2. Assertion: Convex mirrors are used as rear-view mirrors in vehicles.
Reason: Convex mirrors provide a wider field of view.
3. Assertion: Concave mirrors are used in solar furnaces.
Reason: Concave mirrors converge sunlight to produce heat.
4. Assertion: The image formed by a convex mirror is always virtual and erect.
Reason: Convex mirrors diverge light rays.
