it allows the bus driver to see the upstairs of the bus. Also the convex mirror gives the bus driver the full view of the upstairs. Convex mirrors are used because it gives a better view range. cmh :)

Does a convex mirror make the image upside down?

No, a convex mirror does not produce an upside-down image. Convex mirrors always produce virtual, upright, and diminished images of objects placed in front of them.


What do concave and convex mirrors have in common?

Concave and convex mirrors both reflect light. Concave mirrors converge light rays to a focal point, while convex mirrors diverge light rays. They are both commonly used in various optical devices and have applications in fields like physics and imaging.


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 type of mirror produces only diverging rays?

The convex mirrors produces the diverging rays. I hope this would be enough.

What kind of mirrors are typically used for security purposes?

One-way mirrors, also known as two-way mirrors, are typically used for security purposes. These mirrors allow one side to see through while the other side appears as a mirror, making them suitable for monitoring areas without being easily detected.


How are convex mirrors in shopping centres used for security purpose?

Similar to convex mirrors used in some parking areas, these mirrors are useful because they can be placed on the ceiling and near corners while expanding the field of view due to their convex shape. Because of this, they are often used for seeing behind people while being in front of them (with the mirror perched high on the wall behind a line of people), looking around corners, and behind yourself. Convex mirrors basically expand your view like mirrors in a car and can be useful for spotting potential thieves without even having to look directly at them. The use of these mirrors is somewhat limited because they often have blind spots and the person being spotted on the mirrors can look back into it to see if anyone is observing them.


How are streetlights placed and what type of lamp is used for them?

Which lens is used in street lights? Convex mirrors are used as reflectors in street lights because they are able to spread the light over a wide area.


What is the difference between a concave mirror and a convex mirror?

ShapeConcave mirrors curve inward, creating a focal point in front of the mirror. Convex mirrors curve outward creating a focal point behind the mirror.Concave ImageBecause of their shape and focal point placement, images in concave mirrors appear upside down and far away. However, when you move closer, the object enlarges. If you get close enough, the object enlarges more and the image is right-side up.Convex ImageIn a convex mirror, images appear right-side up, shrunken and virtual, or placed somewhere behind the mirror.


Does a convex lens invert images?

Yes. Image formed by convex lens is laterally inverted. However, It should be kept in mind that convex lens can form both real and virtual images. If the object is placed beyond F (Focus), then real image will be formed and laterally inverted. However, if the object is placed between F and C. Then the images formed will be virtual but NOT laterally inverted. For concave lens, all images formed is on the same side so the images formed is NOT laterally inverted


What is the nature of the image formed by a convex mirror when an object is placed in front of it?

The image formed by a convex mirror when an object is placed in front of it is virtual, upright, and smaller in size than the object.
