What a nice question. These two different images illustrate the difference between a reflection from a concave and a convex surface. However, if you look in a concave beauty/shaving mirror, you'll still find the image erect. For you will be closer to the mirror than the length of its focus. Enlarged a little indeed.
A concave mirror is usually used on the back of a spoon. This type of mirror curves inward, allowing it to reflect light in a way that magnifies the image. It is commonly found in things like makeup mirrors or dentist's tools.
No, the lens in your eye does not flip the image. It helps to focus the light coming into your eye onto the retina, where the image is then transmitted to the brain. The brain then processes the image and interprets it correctly, without flipping it.
A spoon has a smooth and reflective surface that can bounce light back towards you, allowing you to see your reflection. In contrast, a piece of cloth has a rough and uneven surface that scatters light in different directions, making it difficult for the light to reflect directly back to your eyes to see a clear image.
When an image is placed on a concave surface (like a spoon), the image appears inverted because the light rays are reflected back in a way that causes them to cross over, creating an inverted image. On a concave mirror, the shape and curvature of the mirror cause the light rays to converge at a focal point, resulting in a real, inverted image being formed.
Convex lenses converge light rays and focus them to a point, causing them to cross over. When these crossed-over rays hit the back of our eye or a screen, it creates an upside-down image. This phenomenon is due to the way light rays refract and converge through the lens.
Yes, we do in fact see things upside down until our brain turns it back around for us. You can prove this fact when you look at your self on the outside of a spoon, you will see yourself upside down! In fact our eyes see things the right way up but the image appears upside down in the retina, our brain works so fast that it can interpret the image quickly. +++ The spoon is no test of how sight works, but demonstrates a property of convex mirrors!
it is upside down in the back of the eye and the brain corrects that.
To layer drinks effectively using a bar spoon, hold the spoon upside down and pour the liquid slowly over the back of the spoon. The curve of the spoon helps to disperse the liquid gently, creating distinct layers in the drink.
When the image reaches the eye, it is right-side up. The optics in your eye flip the image upside down in the process of absorbing the light. The up-side down image is then sent to your brain. You brain translates it back to right side up, and then creates the image for you to see. The image never appears upside down to you, because your brain does not create the image for you to see until it has flipped it back right-side up.
The layer at the back of the eye where the image is projected upside down is called the retina. The retina contains photoreceptor cells (rods and cones) that detect light and convert it into neural signals. When light enters the eye, it passes through the lens, which inverts the image before it reaches the retina, resulting in an upside-down image that the brain later processes to perceive correctly.
My face in the back of a shiny spoon would appear distorted and flipped horizontally due to the curved reflective surface. The convex shape of the spoon would create a funhouse mirror effect, making my features appear elongated or squished.
The image will be formed upside-down and reversed horizontally on the back of the inside of the camera.
Yes, when you look at something upside down, the image will be projected upside down onto your retina, located at the back of your eyeball. However, your brain is able to interpret the image and flip it right side up so that you perceive the object correctly.
The image formed on the retina is actually inverted due to the way light rays refract in the eye. The brain processes this inverted image and flips it back upright to create a coherent visual perception.

If you take a closer look at ANY U.S. coin, you'll notice that the image on the back is upside-down in relation to the image on the front. This means your 1950 Franklin half does NOT have an error. That said, it's currently worth about $12 for the silver content.
All U.S. coins have the reverse image upside down to the obverse. Look at any other coin you have. It's just 50 cents.
