Converging and Diverging Lenses Converging Lenses As long as the object is outside of the focal point the image is real and inverted. When the object is inside the focal point the image becomes virtual and upright. Diverging Lenses The image is always virtual and is located between the object and the lens. Reflection from Mirrors Reflection from a Plane Mirror The image distance always equals the object distance. The size of the image is the same as the object (the mirror does not magnify the image). Reflection from a Concave Mirror When the object is far from the mirror, the image is inverted and at the focal point. The image is real light rays actually focus at the image location). As the object moves towards the mirror the image location moves further away from the mirror and the image size grows (but the image is still inverted). When the object is that the focal point, the image is at infinity. As the object moves towards the mirror insi
