CBSE Class 10 Answered

Dear Student,

 

A convex mirror protrudes in the center -- if flat-backed, its center is thicker than its edges. The image you see in it will be smaller than the original, just as you would see in a conCAVE lens. In a concave mirror, the image formed is mostly real and inverted. When the image is between pole and the focus, image is virtual, erect and enlarged.

A concave mirror is thinner in the center - dished in (it could hold water). Reflections it produces may be magnified or inverted, just as images seen through a conVEX lens. In a convex mirror, the image formed is always virtual, erect and diminished.

 

Hope that satisfies your query.
