What are the uses of convex and concave mirrors?
A convex mirror is used for:- A spotlight..... the light in right in the middle and the convex mirror is behind it so the light that shines back ward's hits the mirror and reflect's back and bends into a focal point. A concave mirror is used for:- Dentist mirror.... to magnify a potion's teeth. They are also used in car light's but is very hard to explain. The first answer above relates to a concave mirror.
Did periscope use convex or concave mirror?
The basic periscope uses flat mirrors, to bend and offset the optical path. If magnification is required, then the periscope will use convex objective and eyepiece lenses, becoming a refracting telescope with an offset in its optical path.
