What else can I help you with?
Where should you place an object on the principal axis in front of a convex mirror to get a virtual upright and smaller image?
To get a virtual upright and smaller image from a convex mirror, place the object in front of the mirror but between its focal point and the mirror. This will produce a virtual image on the same side as the object that is upright and smaller than the object.
How can you distinguish between a plane concave and a convex mirror without touching them?
One way to distinguish between a plane concave and convex mirror without touching them is to observe their reflected images. A concave mirror will produce an upright and magnified image of an object placed in front of it, while a convex mirror will produce an upright and diminished image. Another way is to look at the reflection of a distant object – a concave mirror will form a real image, while a convex mirror will create a virtual image.
How do you derive relation between focal length and radius of curvature of convex mirror?
For a convex mirror, the focal length (f) is half the radius of curvature (R) of the mirror. This relationship arises from the mirror formula for convex mirrors: 1/f = 1/R + 1/v, where v is the image distance. When the object is at infinity, the image is formed at the focal point, and the image distance is equal to the focal length. Hence, 1/f = -1/R when solving for the focal length in terms of the radius of curvature for a convex mirror.
Is there ever a position where an object will not have an image produced in a convex mirror?
This will depend entirely on the geometry of the convex mirror. Only if the mirror is a spherical shell will the answer be "no."
What is position of focus point in convex mirror and concave 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.

The image formed by a convex spherical mirror will always be what?
The nature of the image is not constant. It varies with the distance between the object and the 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.
How can you distinguish between a plane mirror concave mirror and a convex mirror by merely looking at the mirror?
A plane mirror will reflect an image without any distortion, a concave mirror will reflect an upside-down image that can be magnified or diminished depending on the object's distance, while a convex mirror will reflect a right-side-up image that appears smaller than the object. By observing how an object's reflection appears in the mirror, you can determine its type.
How would you describes the image formed by a convex mirror?
The image formed by a convex mirror is upright and larger than the object.
What is the nature of the image formed by a convex mirror when an object is placed in front of it?
The image formed by a convex mirror when an object is placed in front of it is virtual, upright, and smaller in size than the object.
What type of image does a convex mirror formed?
A convex mirror forms a virtual, upright, and diminished image of the object placed in front of it. The image is also located behind the mirror.
How do you describe the image formal by a convex mirror?
The image formed by a convex mirror is virtual, upright, and smaller than the object. It appears to be located behind the mirror.
What does the image of an object look like in a convex mirror?
The image formed by a convex mirror is virtual, upright, and smaller than the actual object. It appears to be located behind the mirror and has a wider field of view compared to a plane mirror.
