Question Image

There are two types of commonly used curved mirrors: curved mirrors and spherical mirrors. They are made by polishing the inside or outside of curved glass. Convex mirrors are made by polishing the outer curved surface, and concave mirrors are made by polishing the inner curved surface.  In a concave mirror, due to the nature of the internal reflective surface, the light ray's incident on it tend to converge.  Image formation with a curved mirror depends on the distance between the object and the mirror. If the object is placed very close to the mirror, you will get a virtual magnified image. When you move away from the mirror, an image that is inverted from the actual image is created. Therefore, option C is correct because the type of image depends on the distance from the object to the mirror.
