उत्तर

OBJECT PLACED IN FRONT OF CONVEX MIRROR :

Place the object anywhere in front of convex mirror image formed is

  1. Between pole and focus ← position.
  2. Diminished ← size.
  3. Upright (erect) and virtual ← nature.

As the object is moved away from the mirror, the image shifts towards the focus and decreases in size but is (diminished)
