To find the focal point of a convex mirror, you can use the formula: f = R/2, where R is the radius of curvature of the mirror. The focal point of a convex mirror is located behind the mirror, at a distance equal to half the radius of curvature.
To see an upside-down reflection of yourself in a convex mirror, you would need to stand closer to the mirror within the focal point. The image formed in a convex mirror is always virtual, upright, and smaller in size compared to the object.
When a light ray passes through a focal point of a convex mirror, it will reflect parallel to the principal axis. This is because the reflected ray follows the law of reflection, where the incident angle is equal to the reflection angle.
The convex mirrors produces the diverging rays. I hope this would be enough.
Concave mirror would have the surface curved out get coated with mercury hence curved in surface would reflect the rays fallen on. But convex mirror would have the surface curved in get coated with mercury hence curved out surface would reflect the rays fallen on. Concave mirror would have both converging and diverging ability. When light coming from an object placed at a distance higher than its focal length right from the pole of the mirror, converging takes place. But the object lies in between pole and the focus diverging action. But in convex mirror irrespective of the placement of the object only diverging phenomenon. Concave mirror used as shaving mirror and dentists too use them Convex mirror is used as rear view mirror in case of vehicles near by the driver.
As a thicker lens has more material to do bend the light further it it would have a shorter focal length

Convex lenses cause the focal point to appear behind the lens (positive convergence). In myopia, the focal point lies somewhere between the lens and the retina, it needs to converge at a point farther than it is converging, this is why a convex lens is used, to push the focal point back so it will hit the retina. A concave lens would do the opposite for hyperopia (the focal point appears behind the retina), it will adjust the focal point to lie more anteriorly and land on the retina.

A concave mirror would focus the light back towards the focal point of the mirror. You would not be able to use the mirror effectively with a concave.
No, it will not, this is because a plane mirror has no focal point. It's rays never converge at a single point like a concave mirror, and therefore it has no focal point The mirror equation is 1/f=1/di + 1/do, where f is the focal point, di is the distance of the image from the mirror, and do is the distance of the reflected object from the mirror. Since focal point is required for the equation, it can't work. Hope this helps.
If a concave mirror is made flatter, its focal length will increase. This is because a flatter mirror has a larger radius of curvature, resulting in light rays converging at a point farther away from the mirror.
Parallel rays of light that reflect from a concave mirror will converge at a focal point after reflection. The focal point is located on the principal axis of the mirror and is the point where all reflected rays meet after reflection.
This would be a mirror with when you look at it, the center of the mirror is deeper than the sides surrounding the center. convex would be the opposite with the center closer to you than the sides.
Concave Vs Convex 1. Mercury coating will be made on the convex side but here on concave side. So reflecting portion would become concave and here convex 2. Both real and virtual images but only virtual images 3. Both diminished, enlarged and even same size images formed but only diminished. 4. Both inverted (real) and erect (virtual) images but only erect images. 5. Used as shaving mirror and in telescopes but used as rear view mirror
