Image Formation in Convex Mirror:

Convex mirrors always form virtual images. This is because the focal point and the centre of curvature of the convex mirror are imaginary points and that cannot be reached. So the image is formed inside the mirror and cannot be projected on a screen. The image formed look smaller than the object from a distance but it gets larger as the object is brought closer to the mirror.


What is the magnification of image formed by convex mirror?
a) smaller in size than the object   
b) larger in size than the object
c) equal in size as the object             

d) variable in size

What is the position of image formed by convex mirror?

b) between the center of curvature and focus point
c) beyond the mirror                          
d) between focus point and pole
