What type of mirror is represented by the backside of a shining steel spoon?

Open in App

Solution

A shining steel spoon is a good structure to identify concave and convex shapes.
The outward curved region or the bulged out region act as a mirror or the reflecting surface that diverges the incident ray.
Hence, the backside of the steel spoon acts as a convex mirror (diverging mirror).
