Write two uses of the convex mirror.


Open in App
Solution

Uses of the convex mirror.

  1. They are used in street lights as they are good reflectors of light. They increase the amount of light; this makes it easier to light up streets with low energy usage.
  2. Convex mirrors are used in the rear-view mirrors of all vehicles. They give a larger view when compared to plane mirrors. We will need huge plane mirrors to cover the width seen through a convex mirror of a much smaller size.
