a small doubt... may be damn foolish..
here goes..

if two non parallel beams of light are incident on a plane mirror..then after reflection..they will meet sumwhere rite?... will it form a real image?

it can form a real img if the object is virtual..i mean if u use the virtual img obtained from some other optical inst as object 4 the plane mirror u get real img..

@ ashwin......yaar what comuter001 has said is perfect.......

you can never get a real image out of a plane mirror........
and ABOUT YOUR CASE BUDDY..........ITS NOT EVEN HYPOTHETICAL..........

I'LL TELL YOU WHY..........
IMAGE HAMESHA OBJECT KA HOTA HAI RIT..........
i.e the ray of light coming from 2 points ON THE OBJECT are taken into consideration..............in OTHER WORDS PARALLEL BEAM OF LIGHT........ALLRIT...........

dude your concept would change our whole optics........
anyways its good to be curious.......
cheers
