Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) (B) and (C) only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Statement (A): Magnification \(m\) is \(-\)ve for real images and \(+\)ve for virtual images. (Incorrect) Statement (B): For concave mirrors, \(f\) and \(R\) are \(-\)ve. For convex mirrors, \(f\) and \(R\) are \(+\)ve. (Correct) Statement (C): Magnification \(m\) is a ratio of…
