Which of the mirrors depicted above is a single convex mirror?

Do concave mirrors reflect sharp images?

It depends on the precise shape of the mirror. What's generally meant by "sharp image" is that the light rays focus at a single point. If the curvature of the mirror is variable, this doesn't happen.


What Is the focal point of a concave mirror?

It is the point at which light comes to a focus at a single point in space at a certain distance from the mirror relative to its curvature.


Differences between reflecting and refracting telescopes?

Reflecting Telescopes -uses a single or combination of curved mirrors to bring light to a focus and make an image.


Would the mirror equation work for plane mirrors?

No, it will not, this is because a plane mirror has no focal point. It's rays never converge at a single point like a concave mirror, and therefore it has no focal point The mirror equation is 1/f=1/di + 1/do, where f is the focal point, di is the distance of the image from the mirror, and do is the distance of the reflected object from the mirror. Since focal point is required for the equation, it can't work. Hope this helps.


What is the difference between the way parallel light rays are affected by a concave mirror and a concave lens?

The difference between the two is that once the light passes through the concave lens it diverges, and the rays are refracted outward, and never meet a focal point. Then there is the parallel light rays that bounce off the curved surface of a concave mirror and then meet a single point ( focal point).


What would be the equivalent single-mirror diameter of a telescope constructed from two serparate 11 m mirrors?

Two separate 11 m mirrors have the same total areaas a single 15.56 m one.


Which is bigger a reflecting or refracting telescope?

There is no single answer to this question. The Cassegrain has a paraboloidal shaped main mirror. The Ritchey-Chrétian has a hyperboloidal main mirror. I have a Schmidt-Cassegrain which has a spherical main mirror. Dall-Kirkham telescopes have an ellipsoidal main mirror. The secondary mirror can have different shapes as well but I won;t get into hose. That's a separate issue.


What kind of mirror would be best suited for use in a solar cooker and why?

concave mirror are the best as it collects the sunlight coming from infinity to a single point called focus.it produces intense heat to cook food easily.still using plane mirror on household level for solar cooker is foolishness.


How many reflections are there in a mirror image?

A single mirror will only have one image of whatever it is reflecting. It is possible to see more than one image by having two mirrors reflect each other. Many images will then be visible.


Is a concave sides perpendicular?

A single side cannot be concave and so the question makes no sense.


What is the color of mirror?

A mirror has no color. A perfect mirror will reflect all light equally and spectrally. A spectral reflection is one where all light hitting the mirror from a single direction is reflected in a single direction as it leaves the surface.As mirrors are usually constructed behind a thickness of glass, the glass itself can sometimes absorb certain colors and so the mirror does not reflect all colors fully. Then it may appear that the mirror has a color.There is no specific color of mirror. A mirror is a silver plated surface covereg with plane glass, reflecting whatever color coming in the front of it.
