To answer the question regarding the images formed by concave and convex mirrors for a real object, let's analyze each type of mirror step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding Concave Mirrors 1. **Definition**: A concave mirror is a spherical mirror that curves inward, resembling a portion of the interior of a sphere. 2. **Image Formation**: The image formed by a concave mirror depends on the position of the object relative to the focal point (F) and the center of curvature (C). - **Object beyond C**: The image is real, inverted, and smaller than the object. - **Object at C**: The image is real, inverted, and of the same size as the object. - **Object between C and F**: The image is real, inverted, and larger than the object. ...
