Answer and Explanation:

Convex Mirror is a curved mirror where the reflective surface bulges out towards the light source. This bulging out surface reflect light outwards and are not used to focus light. These mirrors form a virtual image as the focal point (F) and the centre of curvature (2F) are imaginary points in the mirror that cannot be reached. This results in formation of images that cannot be projected on a screen as the image is inside the mirror. The image looks smaller than the object from the distance but gets larger as the object get closer to the mirror.

There are two possibilities with related to the position of the object in a convex mirror.  

  • When the object is at infinity
  • When object is between infinity and pole
