CONVEX AND CONCAVE MIRRORS

1. Describe a convex and concave mirror.

A convex mirror, or simply put a curved mirror, is a mirror in which the reflective surface bulges toward the light source. It reflects the light outwards and is therefore not used to focus light.

A concave mirror, or converging mirror, has a reflecting surface that is recessed inward (away from the incident light). Concave mirrors reflect light inward to one focal point. They are used to focus light.

2. How are images formed with curved mirrors?

For example, there is point O and point I, if light rays that originate at point O on the object strike a curved mirror and are reflected there so they converge to point I and then diverge from point I as they continue on their way. If our eyes detect these rays, we will see an image at point I. This is how an image is formed.

3. What are the devices where curved mirrors are used?

The most commonly occurring examples of concave mirrors are shaving mirrors and makeup mirrors. As is well-known, these types of mirrors magnify objects placed close to them. The most commonly occurring examples of convex mirrors are the passenger-side wing mirrors of cars.

Answer:

see answer below

Explanation:

1. Describe a convex and concave mirror.

-  Round mirrors in which internal surfaces are painted are known as raised mirrors, while the circular mirrors wherein outward surfaces are painted are known as inward mirrors. Curved Mirror If an empty circle is cut into parts and the external surface of the cut part is painted, then, at that point, it turns into a mirror with its inward surface as the reflecting surface.

2. How are images formed with curved mirrors?

  - Curved mirrors are framed by a piece of a round formed mirror. This classification of mirrors contains two sub-classifications in itself.

3. What are the devices where curved mirrors are used?​

 -  Most telescopes, and generally enormous telescopes, work by utilizing curved mirrors to assemble and shine light from the night sky. The principal telescopes shone light by utilizing bits of bended, clear glass, called focal points.
