When light reflects off a curved mirror, it can cause the image to appear distorted. A concave mirror can make the image appear thinner, while a convex mirror can make it appear bulged out. This distortion occurs due to how the curved surface bends the light rays, impacting the way the reflected image is formed.

Why does our image appear thin and bulged out in some mirrors?
The distortion of your image in certain mirrors is due to the way the mirror is curved or shaped. Concave mirrors can make objects look thinner and elongated, while convex mirrors can make objects look thicker and bulged out. This distortion is caused by the way light rays reflect off the mirror's surface.
Why does our image appear thin or bulged out in some mirrors?
Mirrors can cause distortions in reflections due to the curvature of the glass, which can result in a thinner or bulged appearance depending on the type of mirror (concave or convex) and how it is positioned relative to the person looking at it. The way light reflects off the mirror and reaches our eyes can create these optical illusions.
What are examples of convex mirrors?
Magnifying mirrors, side mirrors on cars and trucks, certain securuty mirrors.
What optical devices can form real images?
Some optical devices that can form real images include concave lenses, convex lenses, and curved mirrors. These devices can focus light rays to create a real image that can be projected onto a screen.
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

Why do ghosts appear in a mirror?
Just as vampires are said not to have reflections, some ghosts are said to appear in mirrors while otherwise invisible. The intangible nature of virtual images is often associated with surreal or supernatural influences.
Why some images on mirror appear to be erect?
Some images on a mirror usually appear erect because of the concave mirror.
What are examples of convex mirrors?
Magnifying mirrors, side mirrors on cars and trucks, certain securuty mirrors.
Why are multiple images formed when two mirrors are placed at right angles to each other?
With two mirrors at right angles you will have 3 (360/90 - 1) images of an object. Two of these are primary and the third is secondary. Some light rays from the object bounce of each of the mirrors to your eye to form the two primary images. But there are other rays that bounce off a mirror onto the second mirror before they get to you. This produced the secondary image.

What are the use of plain mirror in Kaleidoscopes?
There are at least 2 plane mirrors at some angle to each other in a Kaleidoscope, in order to create the symmetrically-multiple images that is the instrument's point.
How long after expiration dateis pumpkin okay?
As long as the can is not bulged, it is alright. After a few years, it will loose some of it's flavor, but it will not be spoiled.
Are the mirrors in a babies dresser made of plexiglass?
Some are pleiglass but most are glass mirrors
