What happens to the image when the object is moved away from the mirror gradually?
Answers
Answer:
we fill the image is going far from us as we are going and the image gradually become small than actual size (this answer is applicable only for plane mirror
Explanation:
In the question,
The image characteristics varies from the mirror to mirror.
In case of Plane mirror,
When we move away from the mirror the image also moves inwards.
That is,
The distance between the object and the image increases.
Also,
The size of the image reduces as well.
In case of Convex mirror,
When the object is moved away, the distance of the image (virtual) which forms behind it, from the mirror increases.
That means the position of image shifts from the pole towards the focus of the mirror and the size of image also decreases with the movement.
In case of Concave mirror,
When the object is moved away from the mirror gradually, when the object is near the mirror and in between the mirror and the focus the size of the image increases and when the object is moved gradually away from there towards the Focus the image is at infinite and when in between Focus and Centre of Curvature the image size is bigger than the object.
When at Centre of Curvature the size of image is same as that of object.
When away from Centre of Curvature the image size again decreases gradually.
