Concave Mirrors Characteristics
1. Object is farther than C. L- Farther than C
O- Inverted
S- smaller than the object
T- Real

2. Object at C (center of L- The object is at the center of C

curvature) O- Inverted
S- same size
T- Real
3. Object is between C & F. L- Between C and F
O- Inverted
S- Bigger
T- Real

4. Object at F. L- at F
O- Inverted
S- Bigger
T- Image

5. Object is between F & V. L- near at F

O- Upright
S- smaller
T-Real
 Convex Mirror
(follow the rays for convex
mirrors)
1. Farther than C in front of the L- Farther than C in front of mirror
mirror O- Upright
S- Smaller
T- Real

2. Between F & V in front of the L- Between the F in front of the

mirror. mirror
O- Upright
S- same size
T- Real
Questions:
1. Does the position of the object affect the location, orientation,
size, and type (LOST) of the image? How?
Yes, it does because when you move the object the LOST of the
image changes based on the position.
2. For concave mirrors, in what position of the object is the image
real, inverted and bigger? For concave mirrors, when the object is
located anywhere between F and C, the image is real, inverted,
enlarged in size, and located beyond C.
3. In which position of the object is its image smaller?
When the image is getting farther away to the mirror it will start to
shrink due to how far it’s going.
4. Give examples in everyday life where curved mirrors are used.
-Headlights in the car.
-Magnifying glass
-Make up mirrors
-commonly occurring examples of convex mirrors are the passenger
side wing mirrors of cars.
