Why inner curved surface is known as Concave mirror?
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.
If a convergent beam of light is incident on a plane mirror then what type of image will it form?
A convergent beam of light incident on a plane mirror will form a real and inverted image.
Why is concave mirror used in street lights?
bcause when light source placed at focus of the mirror, after flashing the light form the source to the mirror after reflection a straight parallel beam of light emerges which makes the street bright
Why concave mirror is used in search lights?
The concave shape focuses the light into a narrow beam. If the mirror was convex, the light would be spread out - useless for searching into any distance.
How is a concave mirrior used in a flashlight?
A concave mirror reflects and concentrates light, making it useful in flashlights to focus and direct the light beam in a specific direction. The concave shape helps to gather and redirect light rays emitted by the bulb, resulting in a more powerful and focused beam of light.
Do negative lenses diverge?
Actually the negative lens just sits there. It causes a parallel beam of light to diverge. It causes a convergent beam to converge less. It causes a divergent beam to diverge more.
What happens to a beam of light when you shine it on mirror?
When you shine a beam of light on a mirror, the light is reflected off the mirror's surface. The angle of incidence (the angle at which the light beam hits the mirror) is equal to the angle of reflection (the angle at which the light beam bounces off the mirror). This is known as the law of reflection.

What is a line of reflection?
A line of reflection is a reflected line, often off of a mirror. If a flashlight sends a beam of light at a mirror (the light is called the incident beam), the angle at which it hits the mirror will equall the angle at which the reflected beam of light (called the reflected beam), exits the mirror. This is called the Law of Reflection. This is why light is reflected from a mirror at the same angle at which light struck its surface. A line of reflection is a reflected line, often off of a mirror. If a flashlight sends a beam of light at a mirror (the light is called the incident beam), the angle at which it hits the mirror will equall the angle at which the reflected beam of light (called the reflected beam), exits the mirror. This is called the Law of Reflection. This is why light is reflected from a mirror at the same angle at which light struck its surface.
Is the incoming beam of light that strikes a mirror at an angle and reflects the same as that of the incoming beam?
Yes, the beam just reflects off of the mirror. There is no beam created from the mirror.
What happens to a path of a light beam when it falls on a mirror?
When a light beam falls on a mirror, it gets reflected following the law of reflection. The angle of incidence (the angle at which the light beam strikes the mirror) is equal to the angle of reflection (the angle at which the light beam bounces off the mirror). This process allows us to see our reflection in mirrors.
What is the beam of light reflected off the mirror?
The reflected beam of light follows the law of reflection, where the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. This means that the angle at which the light beam hits the mirror will be the same as the angle at which it bounces off the mirror.
What phenomenon occurs when a light beam is incident on a mirror?
When a light beam is incident on a mirror, reflection occurs. The mirror surface reflects the light beam back in a predictable manner, following the law of reflection, where the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
What is the beam of light that travels towards the mirror called?
The beam of light that travels towards the mirror is called the incident ray.
What happens when a straight beam of light hits a mirror?
By omed, The mirror breaks and the light turns blue.
What happens when light strikes a mirror?
When light strikes a mirror, it is reflected back at the same angle it hit the mirror, following the law of reflection. The angle of incidence (the angle at which the light beam strikes the mirror) is equal to the angle of reflection (the angle at which the light beam bounces off the mirror).
What happens to the beam of a flashlight when it hits a mirror?
When a beam of light from a flashlight hits a mirror, it gets reflected off the mirror surface. The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence, following the law of reflection. This results in the beam bouncing off the mirror and changing direction.
