Explanation:

There are many differences between concave and convex mirrors and some of them are as follows.

CONCAVE MIRROR....

If inner side of spherical mirror is reflecting, it is called as concave mirror. If outer side of the spherical mirror is reflecting, it is called as convex mirror.

IMAGE

Concave mirrors form real and inverted images. Convex mirrors form virtual and erect images.

NATURE

The images formed by the concave mirrors are magnified in nature. The images formed by the convex mirrors are diminished in nature.

SIZE

The object in the image formed by the concave mirror look bigger than the original size of the object. The object in the image formed by the convex mirror look smaller than the original size of the object.

POSITION

Concave mirrors form real and inverted images except when the object is between pole and focus. Convex mirrors form virtual and erect images irrespective of the position of the object.
