Image Formation by Spherical Mirrors
An image formed by a spherical mirror is an image that is formed at a location beyond the mirror's focal point. The mirror's focal point is the point at which the mirror's rays converge. The image is always virtual, meaning that it cannot be projected onto a real surface.
The distance from the mirror to the image is equal to the distance from the mirror to the object. The size of the image is also equal to the size of the object.
The image is always upright, and its orientation is the same as that of the object.
The image is always formed on the same side of the mirror as the object.
The distance between the mirror and the image is known as the focal length of the mirror. The focal length of a spherical mirror is equal to the distance from the mirror's center to its focal point.
The focal length of a spherical mirror is independent of the object's position.
The image formed by a spherical mirror is a real image, which means that it can be projected onto a real surface. The image is always upright, and its orientation is the same as that of the object.
The image formed by a spherical mirror is always formed at a distance greater than the object's focal length from the mirror
