The difference is that when virtual image is formed by the concave mirror...it is larger than its original size..but when it is formed by the convex mirror..it is smaller than the original size....

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


What is the difference between a concave polygon and a convex polygon?

Any polygon that has an angle that is > 180º is a concave polygon. A convex polygon does not. e.g. All regular polygons are convex.


Which spherical mirror has a virtual focus-concave or convex?

A concave mirror has a virtual focus. This is because the rays of light that are incident on a concave mirror are reflected and appear to diverge from a point behind the mirror, creating a virtual focus.


Difference between concave and convex in the dark?

Concave surfaces are inwardly curved, causing light to be focused towards a single point (e.g., a concave mirror), resulting in a real image. Convex surfaces are outwardly curved, causing light to be spread out or dispersed, resulting in a virtual image. In the dark, a concave surface may appear darker as it focuses light away, while a convex surface may appear lighter as it scatters light.


What is the difference between concave and convex shapes?

Concave shapes curve inward, like a cave, while convex shapes curve outward, like a bump.


What is the difference between convex and concave shapes?

Convex shapes curve outward, like a dome, while concave shapes curve inward, like a cave.


What are the two types of curve mirrors?

The two types of curved mirrors are concave and convex mirrors. Concave mirrors curve inward and can create both real and virtual images, while convex mirrors curve outward and only produce virtual images.


Difference of non convex and convex?

A non convex is a concave and a convex is differently shaped


What is the difference between a concave and a convex polygon?

A concave polygon has lines that curve inwards whereas a convex polygon has lines that curve outwards and they are found on and inside spheres


What is the difference between double convex lens from double concave lens?

A double convex lens is thicker in the middle and thinner at the edges, causing light rays passing through it to converge. A double concave lens is thinner in the middle and thicker at the edges, causing light rays passing through it to diverge.

What is the difference between concave and convex shapes and how can they be distinguished from each other?

Concave shapes curve inward, like a cave, while convex shapes curve outward. To distinguish between them, you can look at the direction in which the shape curves - concave curves inwards, while convex curves outwards.
