"A convex mirror is sometimes referred to as a divergingmirror due to the fact that incident light originating from the same point and will reflect off the mirror surface and diverge."
So, a convex mirror will reflect and diverge (scatter) the incident light rays (it produces a virtual image), while a convex lens will do the opposite. It will converge light rays passing through it.

A convex mirror will make light rays more divergent or less?
yes convex mirror will divert light more.
Is a convex lens more like a convex mirror or a concave mirror in the way it produces images?
Closely Convex mirror like to be a mirror than concave mirror.
Why convex mirror is preferred as driver's mirror?
convex mirrors are preferred as drivers mirror because they reflect more area than plain or concave mirror.
Where would you stand if you wanted to see an upside down reflection of yourself in a convex mirror?
It is not possible to do this with a convex mirror. If the mirror is concave you just have be twice the focal length away from the surface of the mirror or more.
The difference between lens and mirror?
In lens light passes right through the glass and reaches the other side. In the case of mirror the light hits the glass and instead of passing through to the other side of the glass it gets reflected back. This is because of the silver coating on one side of the glass.

What are the two kind of mirror in compound microscope?
Convex - which is the flat or the plain mirror and it has the lesser lights to receivebut its has the more light intensity.Concave - which is the curve mirror where the lights to receive is more than the convexbut it has the less light intensity.

How do convex mirrors use light?
the reflection of light on a convex mirrors are more closer
What would be more affected underwater a convex mirror or a concave lens?
what do you call a curved piece of glass or other transparent material that refracts light
You wont more uses of concave and convex mirror as well as of curved mirror?
Your question makes no sense
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
Why do we look further away in convex mirrors then in a normal mirror?
because you see more area than in a plane mirror.
