When does a concave mirror create a virtual image?

...

What kind of image does a concave mirror make when the object is behind the focal point?

It makes a real image that is smaller than the original object

A real image may be

Larger or smaller than the ibject

An object's ________ relative to the focal point determines the type of image a convex lens forms

Position

Is the image created by a convex mirror bigger or smaller than the original object?

Smaller

The more curved the lens,

The more it refracts light

A concave lens can only produce

Virtual images

In a concave lens, the image made is always

Virtual, upright, and smaller than the object

The focal point of a convex mirror is

Behind the mirror

What type of LENS creates only virtual images?

Concave

A lens that is thinner in the center than at the edges

Concave lens

A lens that is thicker in the center than at the edges

Convex lens

When an object is reflected by a concave mirror, the image is real if the reflected rays

Cross at any point in front of the mirror

Concave mirrors can form

Either virtual or real images

If an objects is farther away from the lens and closer to the focal point in a convex lens,

A real image forms

When the object is beyond the focal point of a concave mirror but near it,

A real, enlarged image forms

When the object is well beyond the focal point of a concave mirror,

A real, reduced image forms

A convex mirror produces

A virtual image - no matter where the object is- always upright and reduced-

If the object in a convex lens is closer to the lens then the focal point,

A virtual image forms

When the object is closer than the focal point in a Concave mirror,

A virtual, enlarged image forms

Because the Rays in a Convex mirror never meet,

The images formed are always virtual and smaller than the object
