Explanation:
Convex Mirror:
Convex mirrors are curved mirrors with reflective surfaces that protrude in the direction of the light source. This protruding surface does not serve as a light focus; rather, it reflects light outward.
An optical illusion called an image is produced when light rays from an item are reflected by a mirror.
We are aware that a real image is one that can be viewed on a screen. Virtual images are those that are not visible on screens.
The guidelines for using a convex mirror to create images are as follows:
Rule 1: After mirror reflection, a beam of light that is parallel to the main axis of a convex mirror tends to come from its focus.
Rule 2: A light beam travelling towards a convex mirror's center of curvature is reflected back along the same path.
Rule 3: After reflection, a light beam travelling in the direction of the convex mirror becomes parallel to the major axis.
Rule 4: A light ray incident at a convex mirror's pole will reflect back at the same angle to the primary axis.
No matter how an object is positioned in front of a convex mirror, the image it creates is always behind the mirror, virtual, erect, and smaller than the original object. (Or dwindled)
The generation of an image by a convex mirror is seen in the figure below when the object is positioned anywhere between the mirror's pole and infinity.
A convex mirror always produces an erect, virtual, and reduced picture.
