Inner curved surface is known as concave mirror because inner side of the spherical mirror is polished to reflect the light is called concave mirror,and concave mirror is know because concave mirror converges parallel beam of light.

What moon phases has concave and convex edges?
The transition phases - from New Moon to and Full Moon and vice versa - has Concave inner edge and Convex outer edge. Only New Moon and Full Moon does not have Concave and Convex edges Half Moon is semi-circular in shape
What is the surface of inner planets like?
Rocky Surfaces
What is the surface composition of the inner planets?
The surface composition is made of rock and ice.
Are the stars located with the respect to the celestial sphere on the surface of the sphere?
No, because there is no such thing as the celestial sphere. So there is no inner surface of a celestial sphere.
What are 3 ways inner planets are alike?
The four inner, rocky planets are also known as the terrestrial planets. These are; Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The inner planets all have a clear solid surface, unlike gaseous planets. The inner planets do not have a ring system. The inner planets are of similar densities.
What is the difference between concave lens and the concave mirror?
Not much except concave mirror reflects and concentrate the light and lens let trough and distorts the light "concave -the inner surface of a sphere." defines the shape of the lens or mirror
What are concave?
A concaved shape is one that is curved like the inner surface of a sphere. (Think about something that is cave-like.) The opposite, a convex surface, is one that is shaped like the outer surface of a sphere. So the mirror in a telescope has a concaved surface, as does the inside of a bowl and the surface of a crater or valley.
Is a concave or covect the type of mirror that resembles the inner sufrace of a spoon?
A concave surface is hollow and bends inwards.... think of it as conCAVE.... caves are hollow.A convex surface is like a bump and bends outwards... a convEX bump is on the EXterior of an object
Differentiate between concave and convex mirror?
The outer curved part is coated with mercury as the inner would reflect light in case of concave mirror. Whereas the inner is coated as to make the outer to act as reflector in case of convex mirror. Concave mirror can give both real and virtual images for a real object depending on the location of object. But convex on the other hand can give only virtual image with a real object irrespective of the position of the object. Next, concave mirror can be used as shaving mirror. Also used to converge the parallel beam of light. Convex mirror is best used as rear view mirror in case of vehicles.
The type of mirror that resembles the inner surface of a spoon is called?
A mirror that bows inward is called concave. The opposite, a mirror that bows outward would be called convex. Convex mirrors are used to to increase the field of view around corners and blind spots. Concave mirror serve no purpose other than novelty (making you appear thin or odd)
What is nature of concave lens?
Lens that possesses at least one surface that curves inwards. It is a diverging lens, spreading out those light rays that have been refracted through it. A concave lens is thinner at its centre than at its edges, and is used to correct short-sightedness. Hope this helps you :)
What is the difference between concave mirror and convex mirror?
Eyesight = ------< = the lines are pointing to how it sees. You see things more clearly for far away things> = the lines are pointing to how it sees. You see things more clearly for close objects.Concave: ---------)(> objectConvex: ---------)< objectI hope you understand the answer. I didnt explain it too well.or you could try......concave is like a "cave"..it bends inwardsand convex is just the opposite it bends outwards....//nfjn//....concave mirror is the one which forms the inner part of the spherical mirror or its reflecting surface bulges inwards & convex is the one which bulges outwards. concave always forms real & inverted image while convex forms virtual & erect image
What does a biconcave shape look like?
Curved in the inner surface on both sides. For example : a red blood cell, crescent moon.
What is the name of a cylinder shaped toy with a sequence of pictures on inner surface?
It's a zoetrope, and the answer to 6 down in todays Sunday mirror starsearch crossword :-)
Why does light bend when it enters the eye?
The curved surface of the cornea turns light waves inward toward the lens (a sturdy tissue inside the outer eye) which focuses light on the retina at the back of the inner eye.
What does a mirror symbolize in art?
In art, a mirror is often used as a symbol of self-reflection, introspection, and inner truth. It can convey themes of self-awareness, identity, and contemplation. Mirrors can also represent duality, illusion, or the idea of looking beyond the surface to see what lies beneath.
What structures increase the surface area for cellular respiration in a mitochondria?
Inner foldings increase surface area. Inner membrane folds for that
