The two types of curved mirrors are concave and convex mirrors. Concave mirrors curve inward and can create both real and virtual images, while convex mirrors curve outward and only produce virtual images.
Concave mirrors and convex mirrors are two types of curved mirrors. Concave mirrors converge light rays to a focal point and can form real or virtual images. Convex mirrors diverge light rays and produce virtual, upright, and diminished images.
Concave Vs Convex 1. Mercury coating will be made on the convex side but here on concave side. So reflecting portion would become concave and here convex 2. Both real and virtual images but only virtual images 3. Both diminished, enlarged and even same size images formed but only diminished. 4. Both inverted (real) and erect (virtual) images but only erect images. 5. Used as shaving mirror and in telescopes but used as rear view mirror
Mirrors that show virtual images are concave mirrors, while mirrors that show real images are convex mirrors. Concave mirrors can create magnified or reduced virtual images depending on the object's position relative to the mirror, while convex mirrors always create smaller, upright, and virtual images.
In concave mirrors, the focal point, focal length, and magnification are important. Concave mirrors can form real or virtual images depending on the object's position relative to the mirror. In convex mirrors, the field of view and image size are important. Convex mirrors always produce virtual images that are smaller and upright compared to the object.
Virtual and real images
Concave mirrors are used in makeup mirrors, headlights of cars, reflecting telescopes, and solar concentrators. They can focus light to produce real or virtual images depending on the object's position relative to the mirror.
Concave and convex mirrors both reflect light to form images. They can both produce real and virtual images depending on the object's position relative to the mirror. Additionally, both mirrors obey the laws of reflection.
Concave mirrors can reflect light to a single focal point, making them useful for focusing light, creating magnified images, and in devices like telescopes and shaving mirrors. They can also produce virtual images that appear larger than the object itself.
Curved mirrors, such as concave and convex mirrors, distort the reflection of objects due to their curved surface. Concave mirrors can focus light to create real or virtual images, while convex mirrors always produce virtual images that are smaller than the object. In contrast, flat mirrors provide a true reflection of objects without any distortion or magnification.
concave mirrors are used as dental mirrors. this is because concave mirrors produce highly magnified images which is useful in obtaining larger view of teeth and gums.
No, convex mirrors cannot produce real images. They only produce virtual images.
