Correct Answer - Option 1 : Convex mirror

The correct answer is Convex mirror

  • Convex mirrors are used as side mirrors of vehicles because convex mirrors show larger images smaller.
  • The image of any object is made straight and small by a convex mirror.
  • Therefore, we can see a small and direct reflection of the rear vehicles using the convex mirror in motor vehicles.
  • There are two types of spherical mirrors - convex mirrors and concave mirrors.
  • Convex mirrors are called "Convergent mirror" and Concave mirror is called "Divergent mirror".
  • The image of any object is made straight and small by a convex mirror.
  • Therefore, using a convex mirror, we can see a small and direct reflection of the wide-area behind cars, motor vehicles in a convex mirror.
  • A concave mirror is used to shave.
