Concave and Convex
Concave and Convex
A curved mirror is actually a mirror with a curved reflective surface. A curved mirror has the same shape as a section of a large sphere as shown in Figure.
A concave mirror curves inwards. Parallel light rays that hit the concave surface are reflected inwards as shown in Figure.
A convex mirror curves outwards. Parallel light rays that hit the convex surface are reflected outwards as shown in Figure.
