Such a mirror is concave.
A "concave" mirror curves inward. A "convex" mirror curves outward.
The convex mirror curves outwards while the concave mirror would curve inwards. The convex mirror traces light out making faraway objects bigger like in a telescope.
No, a hubcap is not a converging spherical mirror. A hubcap is a protective covering for the center of a vehicle's wheel, while a converging spherical mirror is a mirror that curves inwards to focus light rays at a point.
It curves inwards :)
A concave mirror curves inward in the middle, while a convex mirror curves outward in the middle.
It is called a concave mirror. Concave mirrors curve inward and have reflective surfaces that cave inwards. They can be used to focus light to create real or virtual images.
If our image is real and inverted and smaller than the object ,then it is a concave mirror; if the image is virtual and erect and larger than the object,then it is a convex mirror; if the image is of the same size as of the object,it is a plane mirror. that is how we can distinguish or identify which of the given mirrors are what. BUT if the angle is very small you cannot tell Plane is flat, convex it curves outwards and concave it curves inwards.
Convex when it bends outwards, concave when it bends inwards
A concave mirror is curved inwards, causing light rays parallel to the mirror's axis to converge at a focal point in front of the mirror. This type of mirror can be used for focusing light in various optical devices like telescopes and shaving mirrors.
Lots of different things curve in. Something that curves inwards can also be called concave, a spoon is an example of something that is concave. A bowl is also concave and curves inward.
