When the object is at the centre of curvature of a concave mirror, the image formed is real, inverted, and has the same size as the object. Ray diagrams show that rays from the object passing through the focal point become parallel after reflection, and rays hitting the mirror perpendicularly pass through the centre of curvature after reflection. These reflected rays intersect at the centre of curvature.
A point object is placed at the centre of curvature of a spherical concave mirror. Which one among the following would be the correct location of image formed ?
