Question

Is it possible to form an real image using convex mirror
(or) only virtual images will be formed buy convex mirror
If real images are formed by convex mirror then please send a diagram showing the formation of real image through convex mirror and show the diagram along with (F,C,v,u,)

Solution

Plane mirrors and convex mirrors only produce virtual images. Only a concave mirror is capable of producing a real image and this only occurs if the object is located a distance greater than a focal length from the mirror's surface.
