IMG extension file is usually a bitmap file. The image in this file can either be a graphic bitmap or a disc image. The .img extension is used by image files on the disk as well raw dumps of files from a magnetic or optical disc. The actual format of the contents of the files depends on the disk file system where the image is created.

This is because the raw image comprises a sector-based binary copy of the source disk-like FAT, NTFS, CD, DVD, or Floppy Disk. Just like an ISO file, a physical copy of the disc is not required to be inserted in the CD-ROM drive to play the disc media as it can be done with the help of the .img file copied onto the computer if it contains an image of the disc.

The .tar filename was originally designed to be used as a TApe ARchiver to store entire file systems and files as single files on a tape storage medium. It was designed by AT&T in 1979. Today, the format more commonly refers to an archive or collation of multiple files into a single file with the .tar filename extension.

The format is an open-source file archive format commonly associated with the UNIX tar command however other data compression tools are capable of effectively compressing and/or decompressing files saved with the .tar file format. Doing so typically adds the compression filename extension to the archive file for example .tar.bz2.
