What types of images are produced by a concave mirror?
Concave mirrors can produce both real and virtual images. Real images are formed when light rays actually converge at a point in front of the mirror, while virtual images are formed when light rays appear to diverge from a point behind the mirror. Real images are inverted, while virtual images are upright.
Is a convex lens more like a convex mirror or a concave mirror in the way it produces images?
A convex lens is more like a concave mirror in the way it produces images. A convex lens converges light rays to form real or virtual images, much like how a concave mirror can do the same by reflecting light. Both convex lenses and concave mirrors can produce both real and virtual images depending on the object's position relative to the lens or mirror.
How do images form in concave?
In a concave mirror, images can form either real or virtual, depending on the object's distance from the mirror. Real images are formed when the object is placed beyond the focal point, while virtual images are formed when the object is placed between the focal point and the mirror. The image formed is upright for concave mirrors.
What happens to images that are closer to a concave mirror than the focal length?
Images that are closer to a concave mirror than its focal length will be virtual, upright, and magnified. These images will appear on the same side of the mirror as the object.
What the difference between the virtual image created by a concave and plane and a convex mirror?
A concave mirror can create both real and virtual images, whereas a plane mirror can only create virtual images. A convex mirror can only create virtual images that are always diminished in size.
