explain the difference between a plane mirror,a concave mirror and a convex mirror with respect to the rype amd size of the images produced
Answers
Answer:
PLANE MIRROR : IT IS A SIMPLE TYPE OF MIRROR WHICH PRODUCES REGULAR IMAGE.
CONCAVE MIRROR : ITS REFLECTING SURFACE BULGES OUT. IT MOSTLY FORMS REAL AND INVERTED IMAGE.
CONVEX MIRROR : ITS REFLECTING SURFACE BULGES INSIDE. IT MOSTLY FORMS VIRTUAL AND ERECT IMAGE.
A mirror is a part of a smooth and highly
polished reflecting surface. Most commonly
used mirrors are plane mirrors. A spherical
mirror is a part of a spherical reflecting surface.
There are two types of spherical mirrors - convex
mirror and concave mirror.
Convex mirror:
Convex mirror is a curved mirror for which the
reflective surface bulges out towards the light
source. Convex mirrors reflect light outwards
(diverging light rays) and therefore they are not
used to focus light. The image is virtual, erect
and smaller in size than the object, but gets
larger (maximum upto the size of the object) as
the object comes towards the mirror. Such
mirrors are also called diverging mirrors.
Concave mirror:
A concave mirror has the reflecting surface that
caves inwards. Concave mirrors converge light to
one prime focus point. Therefore, they are also
called converging mirrors. They are used to
focus light. The image formed by a concave
mirror varies in size depending on the position
of the object with respect to the mirror. The
image can be real or virtual, erect or inverted
and magnified, diminished or of the same size as
that of the object, all depending on the position
of the object.
