Question

What is the difference between convex lens and mirror & concave lens and mirror?

Answer 1

(1) The reflecting surface of the concave mirror is bulged inwards. But the reflecting surface of the convex mirror is bulged outwards. (2) Concave mirror produces real and inverted images (except when the object is placed between pole and focus. ... But the convex mirror always produces virtual and erect images.

Concave mirrors reflect light rays towards a central point and produce images that can be upside-down or right side up depending on how far away the object is from the mirror. The reflected images can be smaller than the actual object or larger. A mirror that bends outward like the a dome is called a convexmirror.

Answer 2

${\huge{\underline{\black{\bf{Answer:}}}$

When an object is near a plane mirror, the image is erect, virtual and of the same size at the object. A concave mirror gives a magnified and erect image of a nearby object whereas a convex mirror gives an erect and diminished image. For the rear view mirror in a car.
