True for Concave Mirror and False for Convex Lens.
If we put an object at the centre of curvature of a concave mirror, the image of the object can coincide with the object and is of same size. We can show this using the reflection formula.
We know that 1/f = 1/u + 1/v.
if u is at centre of curvature => u = 2f.
=> 1/v = 1/f - 1/2f = 1/2f.
This comes the same as u.
Hence it is true for concave mirror.
As a convex lens has positive power, the object and image are always on opposite sides of the lens.
They can be on the same side but in that case a virtual image is formed.
Hence the object and image can never coincide in the case of a convex lens.
