To prove that a convex mirror always produces a virtual image of a real object independent of the location of the object using the mirror equation, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the properties of a convex mirror A convex mirror is a spherical mirror that bulges outward. It has the following characteristics: - The focal length (F) is positive. - It always produces virtual images regardless of the position of the object. ### Step 2: Define the sign convention ...
