What type of image does a flat mirror form?Virtual image
A convex mirror produces a virtual image, because the principle light rays incident on the mirror surface from the object must pass through the focal point on the other side of the mirror (virtually), and so the image appears at a depth behind the mirror's surface. The three principle rays that form the focused image are: 1. The ray from the top of the object, parallel to the line passing through the center of the convex mirror, must pass through the focal point behind the mirror's surface. 2. The ray that passes from the top of the object and through the focal point in front of the mirror, comes through the mirror (virtually) parallel to the center line. 3. The ray that passes from the top of the object to the point where the surface of the mirror and the center line intersect, the reflection of which is traced back through the mirror's surface at the same angle as the reflected angle. The place behind the mirror where these rays intersect is the placement of the virtual image.
You can look at this website: http://www.glenbrook.k12.il.us/gbssci/Phys/Class/refln/u13l4c.html. The images at the top of the page show the rays different positions on convex mirrors.
The convex lenses can be used in magnifying glasses. They are thicker in the center than in the edges. They are also used in the glasses of those affected with farsightedness. The shape of the lenses used for our eyes is also convex so as to allow it to fit snugly into the eye in shape.
You may mean: 1. focus, the place where the rays from a lens or mirror all cross at a point; the place where an image appears sharp; 2. fucose, a type of de-oxy sugar involved in cell biology.
Refracting
A convex mirror forms a virtual, upright, and diminished image of the object placed in front of it. The image is also located behind the mirror.
Convex mirror form only one image(virtual) because it diverges light rays(beam).
A convex mirror has the same type of curve as the bottom of a spoon - it bulges out. Mirrors reflect.
A convex mirror can produce a virtual, upright, and diminished image of objects placed in front of it. The image formed is always smaller than the actual object.
Different mirrors form different types of images. A convex mirror forms smaller, upright, and virtual images. They are also located behind the mirror.
The image formed by a convex mirror is always virtual, upright, and smaller in size than the object. This type of mirror produces a wider field of view compared to a concave mirror.
A plane mirror will reflect an image without any distortion, a concave mirror will reflect an upside-down image that can be magnified or diminished depending on the object's distance, while a convex mirror will reflect a right-side-up image that appears smaller than the object. By observing how an object's reflection appears in the mirror, you can determine its type.
concave mirror
A convex lense forms only a virtual image.
A concave mirror should be used to obtain a diminished and virtual image of an object. This type of mirror can create virtual images that are smaller in size than the object itself.
