Is a convex lens more like a convex mirror or a concave mirror in the way it produces images?
A convex lens is more like a concave mirror in the way it produces images. A convex lens converges light rays to form real or virtual images, much like how a concave mirror can do the same by reflecting light. Both convex lenses and concave mirrors can produce both real and virtual images depending on the object's position relative to the lens or mirror.
When viewed in a spherical mirror the image of a setting is a virtual image. The image lies 12cm behind the mirror .Is this mirror concave or convex?
The mirror in this case is a convex mirror, as virtual images are formed by convex mirrors.
What types of images are produced by a concave mirror?
A concave mirror is dished in ward. A convex mirror domed. Both images will be distorted in size from actuality. A convex mirror will give a wider view of what you are looking at in the mirror. A concave mirror will compress and magnify the image being viewed.
What are the images formed by a convex mirror?
convex mirror always form virtual, erect image
What are the characteristics of images formed in a convex mirrors?
Images formed by convex mirrors are virtual, upright, and diminished in size compared to the object. They are always located behind the mirror and the image distance is negative. The image is formed by the intersection of reflected rays that appear to diverge from a point behind the mirror.
What is the problem with using convex mirror as wing mirrors on cars?
The images in your mirror will be closer than they appear

Why are rear view mirrors in automobiles made of convex mirrors?
Convex mirror is curved outward so that it reflects a wider viewing area. The images reflected in convex mirror appear smaller and closer.Convex mirrors are generally labeled with safety warning "Objects in mirror are closer than they appear", to warn the driver to be cautious while driving.
When viewed in a spherical mirror the image of a setting is a virtual image. The image lies 12cm behind the mirror .Is this mirror concave or convex?
The mirror in this case is a convex mirror, as virtual images are formed by convex mirrors.
Do convex mirror makes images closer or further?
Neither, the virtual image in all mirrors are the same distance aren't they? But if you mean, does it make it larger or smaller, then I'm pretty sure that it makes it larger :) or "magnified" is the technical term =P

When convex mirrors are used for security purposes the images they form are real images.?
false
Do convex mirror make things bigger or smaller and one example of where convex mirror is used?
Convex mirrors make things appear smaller as they produce virtual and diminished images. An example of where convex mirrors are used is in side-view mirrors in cars to provide a wider field of view for the driver.
How do convex mirrors form virtual images?
Convex mirrors form virtual images because the reflected light rays diverge away from each other after hitting the mirror surface. When these diverging rays are traced back behind the mirror, they appear to originate from a point behind the mirror, thus creating a virtual image.
What the difference between the virtual image created by a concave and plane and a convex mirror?
THough all are erect, in concave it will be enlarged in plane mirror of the same size as the object but in convex mirror it will be dimished
