An object must be placed beyond the focal point of a concave mirror for it to produce a real image. This real image will be inverted and located on the same side of the mirror as the object.
The object should be placed beyond the focal point of the concave mirror. This will produce a larger, magnified image located behind the mirror. By positioning the object past the focal point, the reflected rays will converge to form an image that is larger compared to the object.
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.
When you hold an object far away from a concave mirror, the mirror will produce a real image that is inverted and smaller than the object. The image will be formed at the mirror's focal point.
Distance from the mirror, curvature of the mirror.
A concave mirror is typically used to create a magnified image of an object. The mirror curves inward and can produce an enlarged virtual image when the object is placed within the focal length of the mirror.

A concave mirror can produce a variety of images depending on the position of the object relative to the mirror's focal point. When the object is placed beyond the focal point, it produces a real, inverted, and smaller image. If the object is located between the focal point and the mirror, it generates a virtual, upright, and larger image. Additionally, concave mirrors are commonly used in applications such as makeup mirrors, telescopes, and headlights due to their ability to focus light.
A concave mirror can produce both real and virtual images depending on the object's position relative to the mirror's focal point. When the object is placed beyond the focal point, a real, inverted image is formed. If the object is located between the focal point and the mirror, a virtual, upright image is produced. Concave mirrors are commonly used in applications like makeup mirrors and satellite dishes due to their ability to focus light.

When using a concave mirror, the object distance (distance of the object from the mirror) can vary depending on where the object is placed. If the object is located beyond the focal point of the mirror, the object distance will be positive. If the object is placed between the mirror and the focal point, the object distance will be negative.
A real image is formed by a concave mirror when the object is located beyond the focal point. A virtual image is formed when the object is located between the mirror and the focal point.
If the object is closer to the concave mirror than its focal point, the image will be virtual, upright, and larger than the object. It will also be located behind the mirror.
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.
