a convex mirror, when the object is placed between the Pole and the principal focus F

a concave mirror, when the object is placed between the center of curvature (R) and F

a convex mirror, when the object is placed beyond 2F

Correct Answer:

a concave mirror, when the object is placed beyond 2F

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → a concave mirror, when the object is placed beyond 2F
