Detailed Solution

A convex mirror forms virtual and erect images of objects.
A convex mirror forms a diminished image that is very small than the object itself. The image formed by the convex mirror when the object is placed between pole and infinity in front of the mirror then image is formed behind the mirror between pole and focus. Convex mirrors are known as diverging mirrors. As the light rays incident on its reflecting surface, they diverge after reflection. When we extend these rays so that they can pass through the focus of the mirror Then, they form a virtual, erect and diminished image. In the case of the convex mirror, if the object is placed at infinity and then highly diminished, the virtual image is formed at the focus. Likewise, a virtual, erect and diminished image will form between the pole and focus if it is placed at some distance from the mirror
