What is the difference of curved mirror and flat mirror?
Curved mirrors have a reflective surface that is curved inward or outward, causing light rays to converge or diverge. This allows curved mirrors to form both real and virtual images. In contrast, flat mirrors have a flat reflective surface and only produce virtual images that are the same size as the object.
What are the kind of mirrors?
There are various types of mirrors, including plane mirrors (flat and smooth), concave mirrors (curve inward), convex mirrors (curve outward), and two-way mirrors (reflective on one side and transparent on the other). Mirrors can serve different purposes, such as reflection, magnification, or focusing light.
How is what you see in curved mirrors different from ordinary flat mirrors?
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.
What type of mirror makes security mirrors?
Convex mirrors are commonly used as security mirrors. They provide a wide field of view and help in eliminating blind spots by reflecting a larger area than flat mirrors. These mirrors are often placed in stores, parking lots, and intersections to improve security.
What are flat MIRRORS used for and what do they do?
Flat mirrors are the commonest type, and provide a reflection of the subject. Useful for shaving in and for checking my clothes. They just reflect the light that falls on them. An interesting experiment you can do is to get a couple of flat mirrors and erect them at 90o to each other. If you look in these, you will see a reflection of you that is as other folk see you. The best version of this uses frameless mirrors.

What are mirrors with a flat surface?
to make an reflection
Why is it that the side mirrors in vehicles are curved mirrors?
convex (curved) mirrors show more space than flat mirrors do also the images are smaller than they really are

Would Images formed by curved mirrors will look identical to to the images formed by flat mirrors?
No. They will look different.

Why do mirrors make such a good reflection?
because of the flat surface

Why not concave mirrors are suitable for make up?
Both concave and convex mirrors will distort the image of the face if used when applying make-up. Which is why flat mirrors are used instead.
Can flat mirrors produce a real image?
No, only the virtual image will be obtained.
