If an object is placed at the focus of a concave mirror, where is the image formed?
If an object is placed at the focus of a concave mirror, the image is formed at infinity.
Explanation
For an object placed at the focus $(F)$, the image formed by a concave mirror is real and inverted, highly enlarged and at the infinity.
