Concave Mirror Ray Diagram

Concave Mirror Ray Diagram lets us understand that, when an object is placed at infinity, a real image is
formed at the focus. The size of the image is much smaller compared to that of the object.

When an object the is placed at infinity

When an object is placed behind the center of curvature, a real image is formed between the center of
curvature and focus. The size of the image is smaller than compared to that of the object.

When an object is placed behind the center of curvature

When an object is placed at the center of curvature and focus, the real image is formed at the center of
curvature. The size of the image is the same as compared to that of the object.

When an object is placed at the center of curvature and focus

When an object is placed in between the center of curvature and focus, the real image is formed behind
the center of curvature. The size of the image is smaller than compared to that of the object.

When an object is placed in between the center of curvature and focus

When an object is placed at the focus, the real image is formed at infinity. The size of the image is much
larger than compared to that of the object.

When an object is placed at the focus

When an object is placed in between focus and pole, a virtual and erect image is formed. The size of the
image is larger than compared to that of the object.

When an object is placed in between focus and pole

Image Formation By Convex Mirror

The image formed in a convex mirror is always virtual and erect, whatever be the position of the object.
In this section, let us look at the types of images formed by a convex mirror.

When an object is placed at infinity, a virtual image is formed at the focus. The size of the image is much
smaller than compared to that of the object.

Image Formation By Convex Mirror

When an object is placed at a finite distance from the mirror, a virtual image is formed between the pole
and the focus of the convex mirror. The size of the image is smaller than compared to that of the object.

Summary

S. No Position Of Object Position of Image Size of Image Nature of Image

1 At Infinity At the focus F, behind the mirror Highly diminished Virtual and
Erect

2 Between Infinity and the Pole Between P and F, behind the mirror Diminished Virtual
and Erect
