(i) the position
(ii) nature of the image formed
when an object is placed between focus F and pole P of a concave mirror.

Answer 1

Answer:Shown in attachment

Explanation:Just see the attachment

Answer 2

The ray diagram that shows the position and nature of the image formed when an object is placed between the focus, F, and the pole, P, of a concave mirror is given below.

(i). The position of the image obtained when an object is placed between the focus, F, and the pole, P, is behind the concave mirror .

(ii). The nature of the image formed by a concave mirror is virtual, erect and magnified.

• A concave mirror is one that has an inwards curving reflecting surface.
• Concave mirrors include torchlights and auto headlights.
• A virtual picture is created when the object is closer to the concave mirror, while a true image is created when the object is farther away.
• Concave mirrors are used in solar furnaces, astronomical telescopes, ophthalmoscopes, shaving mirrors, head mirrors, and other devices.
• The ray diagram of image formation is as follows.
