What type of image is formed when reflection rays actually intersect in a concave mirror?

Real

Where is the position of the image formed when the object is placed between the focal point and the center of curvature of a concave mirror?

At infinity

What type of image is formed by controlled reflection rays in a concave mirror?

Virtual

When an object is placed beyond the center of curvature of a concave mirror, what happens to the image size?

It becomes diminished

In which position is a real image formed by a concave mirror with respect to the object if the object is placed between the mirror and the focal point?

On the principal axis

What happens to the position of an image formed by a concave mirror if the object is placed exactly at the focal point?

The image is at infinity

What happens to an object placed beyond the center of curvature in front of a concave mirror?

The image becomes diminished and inverted.

If an object is placed closer to a concave mirror than its focal point, where would the image be located?

Between the mirror and the focal point.

What characterizes a real image formed by a concave mirror?

Same size and real.

Identify the position of the image, whether it is enlarged/diminished, inverted/erect, and real/virtual based on the given object distance and image distance. Group your observations in a table based on the type of image formed.
