A concave mirror is shaped like a bowl or a portion of a sphere, with its reflective surface curved inward. This design allows it to focus light that strikes its surface, making it useful in applications such as telescopes, shaving mirrors, and headlights. The center of the curvature is in front of the mirror, and the focal point is located along the axis of symmetry. This shape enables the mirror to create magnified images of objects placed near it.
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.
To see an upright image of yourself in a concave mirror you must be closer than the principal focus. Hope this helps.
For what prupose? If it is for a shaving mirror then concave mirror would produce a magnified image which would be helpful for clean shaving.
A concave mirror is a reflective surface that curves inward, like the interior of a bowl. It can reflect light to converge at a focal point in front of the mirror. Concave mirrors are commonly used in reflecting telescopes and makeup mirrors.
A concave mirror is a reflective surface that curves inward like the inside of a bowl. It can reflect and focus light to create real or virtual images depending on the object's position relative to the mirror's focal point. Concave mirrors are often used in reflecting telescopes and cosmetic mirrors.
A concave mirror
no concave mirror is in shape of concave mirror
why do we use concave mirror as converging mirror
Concave
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.
A concave mirror would focus the light back towards the focal point of the mirror. You would not be able to use the mirror effectively with a concave.
Such a mirror is concave.

concave mirror is a solar device
A concave mirror is shaped like the inside of a spoon. It curves inward like a bowl and can converge light waves to a focal point, creating a magnified or distorted reflection depending on the distance of the object from the mirror.
A "concave" mirror curves inward. A "convex" mirror curves outward.
A normal mirror is flat, like this: l . A concave mirror on the other hand, has a slight inward curve, like this: ( . And, if you're interested, a convex mirror has a slight outward curve, like this: ) . This is to provide a wider view.
