When light rays hit the concave side of a shiny spoon, they are reflected and converge to form an upright, virtual, and magnified image. This image appears behind the spoon's reflective surface, in the same orientation as the object being reflected.

Is a spoon concave or convex?

A spoon is concave, as its bowl-like shape curves inward. This concave shape allows the spoon to hold and scoop up food effectively.


What type of mirror does a spoon has?

A spoon has a concave mirror shape due to its curved inner surface. This type of mirror can produce both real and virtual images depending on the object's position relative to the focal point.


What type of image is formed in a spoon?

A magnified, virtual, and upright image is formed in a spoon due to reflection. The curved shape of the spoon acts as a concave mirror, causing light rays to converge and reflect off its inner surface, creating an image that appears larger than the actual object.


What do you mean by convex mirror and concave mirror?

concave and convex refer to the curve of the mirror. if it is concave, it curves in at the middle, like a 'cave'. if it is convex, it curves out at the middle, like an eye. think of a spoon - one side is convex, the other is concave. this curve will affect the image the mirror shows.


Why is the concave spoon turns upside down?

A concave spoon will appear to turn upside down when immersed in a liquid due to the refraction of light. When light passes from air into a denser medium (like water), it bends and changes direction. This bending of light causes the concave spoon to appear inverted when seen through the water.


What is concave and convex?

The best example would be to take a metal spoon that is shiny. Look at the spoon so the curved part is facing away from you. The dip you can see is called Concave. The other side that protrudes is called Convex. When you look at the concave side your face will appear squashed, wider at the top and bottom but very narrow in the middle. When you look at the convex side, your face will appear wide and fatter, almost like a football. This is because of the light rays reflective at a different angle.


Why is your image in a spoon is upside down if you look into into the bowl but erect if you look into the back?

What a nice question. These two different images illustrate the difference between a reflection from a concave and a convex surface. However, if you look in a concave beauty/shaving mirror, you'll still find the image erect. For you will be closer to the mirror than the length of its focus. Enlarged a little indeed.


What curves in?

Lots of different things curve in. Something that curves inwards can also be called concave, a spoon is an example of something that is concave. A bowl is also concave and curves inward.


Why does your image is inverted when formed on spoon?

When light rays reflect off a concave surface like a spoon, they converge to a point before diverging again. This causes the image to be inverted. The curved shape of the spoon causes the rays to cross at a point, which flips the image upside down due to the reversal of the light rays.
