Why is convex mirror preferred over concave or plane mirror to use as a rear view mirrors in vehicles?
Convex gives you the widest "field of view" (so someone does not have to be right behind you in order for you to see them).
What the difference between the virtual image created by a concave and plane and a convex mirror?
THough all are erect, in concave it will be enlarged in plane mirror of the same size as the object but in convex mirror it will be dimished
Is the reflecting surface of a sculpture a plane surface like that of a plane mirror?
No. It is not a plane surface like that of a plane mirror because a plane mirror is straight and it does not have any curve in it. the sculpture's surface is like that of a Convex Mirror
What is the defition for plane flat mirror?
A plane flat mirror, as opposed to a concave or convex mirror, is flat and therefore has no focal point. Think of the mirror in your bathroom.
Is it possible to find whether a mirror is plane concave or convex from the nature of image of an object?
Yes possible. If we place an object somehow close to the mirror and observe the image. If the image is of the same size as that of the object then it is a PLANE mirror If the image is magnified and erect, then it will be a concave mirror If the image is dimisnished then the mirror is convex in nature.

How can you distinguish between a plane mirror concave mirror and a convex mirror by merely looking at the mirror?
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.
Do binoculars have convex lenses?
Yes they do. They also include concave mirrors and a plane mirror.

mirror
Which does not form a real image?
(1)A plane mirror (2)A convex mirror (3)A concave lens
Does not form a real image?
(1)A plane mirror (2)A convex mirror (3)A concave lens
How is an image seen in a plane mirror with the image in a convex mirror different?
Concave: a curved like a segment of the interior of a circle or hollow sphere; hollow and curved Convex:having a surface that is curved or rounded outwards plane-a flat mirror
