Draw a ray diagram to show the formation of image of an object placed on the principal axis of a convex mirror. State the position, size and nature of the image. What happens to the image as the object is moved away from the mirror?

उत्तर
OBJECT PLACED IN FRONT OF CONVEX MIRROR :

Place the object anywhere in front of convex mirror image formed is
- Between pole and focus ← position.
- Diminished ← size.
- 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)

While looking at the above diagram, Nalini concluded the following.
- the image of the object will be a virtual one.
- the reflected ray will travel along the same path as the incident ray but in opposite direction.
- the image of the object will be inverted.
- this is a concave mirror and hence the focal length will be negative.
Which one of the above statements are correct?
