They do not always create the same image. They have different focal points and objects at different distances which create an image different from the object in magnitude or orientation.

Is it true that an image formed by a convex mirror is always inverted?

No, an image formed by a convex mirror is always virtual and upright. Concave mirrors can form both real and inverted images.


What is true about convex mirrors?

Well first off, convex mirrors are diverging mirrors, which means when they reflect light rays, the light rays never meet. The image that forms when an object is any length away from the mirror, the image is VIRTUAL and erect, the height of the image is smaller than that of the object, and the image is always between the focal point and the vertex of the mirror. Hope that helped!


How is the image form in curved mirrors what is the answer?

In curved mirrors, images are formed due to the reflection of light rays off the mirror surface. Convex mirrors create virtual, upright, and diminished images, while concave mirrors can form both real and virtual images, depending on the object's distance from the mirror. The shape of the mirror and the position of the object relative to the focal point determine the characteristics of the image formed.


Can a convex form an image that is enlarged real and upright?

No, a convex mirror can only produce virtual images that are diminished and upright. The image formed by a convex mirror is always virtual and located behind the mirror.


When does a convex mirror form real image?

A convex mirror always forms a virtual image, meaning that the light rays appear to be coming from a point behind the mirror. Thus, a real image is never formed by a convex mirror.

What generalization can you make regarding the nature of the images formed by convex mirror?

the image will be Unreal. Concave mirrors form a real and inverted image where in tn convex mirrors the images are unreal.


Why can convex mirrors form only one type of image?

Convex mirror form only one image(virtual) because it diverges light rays(beam).


What image does a convex lens form?

Convex lenses always form smaller, virtual images

What is important in concave and convex mirror?

In concave mirrors, the focal point, focal length, and magnification are important. Concave mirrors can form real or virtual images depending on the object's position relative to the mirror. In convex mirrors, the field of view and image size are important. Convex mirrors always produce virtual images that are smaller and upright compared to the object.


What kind of surface reflects light to form an enlarged image?

If you're talking about mirrors then convex is the mirrors that makes things appear larger. Hope this helps!


Why are convex mirrors used as reflectors?

convex mirror can form image of object speared over a large area . so these helps the drivers to see the traffic behind them.

Why are plane mirrors and convex mirrors unable to form real images?

Plane mirrors and convex mirrors are unable to form real images because they do not converge reflected light to a point. In a plane mirror, the reflected rays stay parallel, while in a convex mirror, the reflected rays diverge. This divergence or parallelism prevents the formation of a real image, which is the convergence of light rays to a point.
