FORMATION OF IMAGES IN CONVEX MIRROR


Image Formation by Convex Mirror
There are only two possibilities of position of object in the case of a convex mirror, i.e. object at infinity and object between infinity and pole of a convex mirror.

a.  Object at infinity: 
When the object is at the infinity, a point sized image is formed at principal focus behind the convex mirror.


Features of image:
  • Virtual
  • Highly diminished
  • Erect











b.  Object between infinity and pole: 
When the object is between infinity and pole of a convex mirror, a diminished, virtual and erect image is formed between pole and focus behind the mirror.

Features of image:
  • Virtual
  • Highly diminished
  • Erect
