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....

Explain the difference between the concave mirror and convex mirror?

A convex mirror bulges out. A concave mirror curves inward.For a convex mirror, light rays are reflected to meet at a point, while, for a concave mirror, light rays seem to be reflected from a point. If the incident rays were paraxial, the reflected rays are reflected to meet at, or appear to be reflected to a point referred to as the focal point of the lens. For a convex mirror, the focal point is real, while, that of a concave lens is virtual.


Five difference between a concave mirrors and convex mirrors?

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
