Can a convex mirror produce real images?

Yes, but it can be hard to arrange. You need to set up a real image as a virtual object, and make the convex mirror image that. If the rays converge strongly enough, they will still converge after reflecting off the convex mirror.


When convex mirrors are used for security purposes the image they form are real images?

You mean rear view mirrors? No chance of getting real image using only a convex mirror.


Why can't a convex mirror create a real image?

Because the focal point of the convex mirror will always be at a 'virtual' place. Convex mirrors focus the image at a definite point.


Can a plane mirror form a real image?

No it can not. It would have to be concave or convex(not sure which). A real image would be if you looked at the mirror and on the wall next to you were projected.


What generalization can you make regarding the nature of the images formed by convex mirror?

the image will be Unreal. Concave mirrors form a real and inverted image where in tn convex mirrors the images are unreal.


Does a convex mirror form a virtual diminished and upright image for all real objects regardless of the location of the object?

Yes.


How can you distinguish between a plane concave and a convex mirror without touching them?

the image in the concave mirror will be real and inverted


Why do you prefer convex mirror as a real veiw mirror in the vehicles?

It gives an erect image and as the image is dimished it would cover a wide range. Though the image is virtual it could be seen by human eyes. Because of all these we use convex mirror as a rear view mirror in vehicles.
