Concave mirrors are used in telescopes. Convex mirrors are used as side-view mirrors in cars.
Concave and convex mirrors allow greater area of view or detailed examination of smaller areas.
A mirror in which the face dips in. As opposed to a convex mirror in which the face is rounded out for a wider view.
Concave mirrors can produce both real and virtual images. Real images are formed when light rays actually converge at a point in front of the mirror, while virtual images are formed when light rays appear to diverge from a point behind the mirror. Real images are inverted, while virtual images are upright.
A dental mirror is concave. This shape allows it to reflect light and provide a magnified view of the mouth during dental examinations and treatments.
Its called a Convex Mirror
Convex mirrors are often used for side mirrors (if the mirror has a note saying "objects in mirror are closer than they appear," it's convex; it may be convex even without such a note).
Actually it is a convex mirror, it bulges out in the center. This increases the field of view from a normal flat mirror so that you can see more area from side to side. So that you can see to the rear and to the side into the blind spot. concave is shaped like the inside of a bowl. Convex is shaped like the outside of a bowl or dome. The hint is to think "cave" inside a cave or bowl so conCAVE
Rear View MirrorThe kind of mirror used in the rear-view mirror must be convex mirrors, because it creates smaller, yet still upright images. Concave mirrors would create an inverted image and the cars you see are not upside down. Convex mirrors make everything smaller so this allows the driver to see a greater range of things behind him.
A wing mirror typically used in cars is convex. This curvature helps to provide a wider field of view for the driver, reducing blind spots and enhancing safety by allowing better visual coverage of the surroundings.
It depends on the context. In terms of mirrors, a concave mirror is typically better for focusing light and forming images, while a convex mirror is better for a wider field of view and reflecting light in all directions.
