Concave and convex mirrors are called spherical mirrors because their reflecting surfaces are part of a sphere. This means that if the mirror were extended to form a complete spherical shape, it would have the same radius of curvature for all points on its surface.
A plane mirror is flat, so your image is the same size as you. A spherical mirror is curved. If concave it can be used either to focus an image as in a reflecting telescope, or magnify as in a shaving/makeup mirror. If convex you get a smaller wide-angled image, as in a car's wing mirror
No, diverging mirrors and convex mirrors are not the same thing. A diverging mirror is a concave mirror, while a convex mirror is a mirror that curves outward. Convex mirrors have a wider field of view compared to diverging mirrors.
In a convex mirror, the focus point is located behind the mirror, on the same side as the object. In a concave mirror, the focus point is located in front of the mirror, on the opposite side of the object.
Convex means rounded or curved like the exterior of a circle or sphere. Also called as fish eye or diverging mirror. The mirror coating of the concave mirror is on the outside of the spherical surface. In concave mirrors, the center of curvature and the reflecting surface fall on the same side of the mirror.

Concave: a curved like a segment of the interior of a circle or hollow sphere; hollow and curved Convex:having a surface that is curved or rounded outwards plane-a flat mirror
In a convex mirror, the focus point is located behind the mirror, on the same side as the object. In a concave mirror, the focus point is located in front of the mirror, on the opposite side of the object.
In the case of concave mirrors parallel rays, parallel to the principal axis and incident near the pole(axial rays), after reflection will converge to the principal focus.Rays reflected from the marginal portions of the mirror(marginal rays) will converge to points nearer than the focus. Due to this the image formed by a concave mirror of large aperture will be blurred. This defect is called spherical aberration. This defect can be overcome by using parabolic mirrors. In a parabolic mirror all the rays, axial rays as well as the marginal rays, incidenting on it after reflection will converge to the same principal focus. This is due to the geometric property of the parabola, that is parabola allows only one focus.Hence in a parabolic mirror there is no spherical aberration and the image will be sharp and clear.

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.
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
Yes possible. If we place an object somehow close to the mirror and observe the image. If the image is of the same size as that of the object then it is a PLANE mirror If the image is magnified and erect, then it will be a concave mirror If the image is dimisnished then the mirror is convex in nature.
When a concave mirror is far away, it forms a real and inverted image. The image will be smaller than the object and located at the focal point of the mirror on the same side as the object.
Yes, when an object is placed less than one focal point away from a concave mirror, it will appear larger and magnified. This is due to the virtual image formed by the concave mirror that appears on the same side as the object.
