Archimedes burnt the ships of enemies, with the help of sunlight and spherical mirrors.

Reflectors of many items are made up of either of the spherical mirrors

Spherical mirrors are of 2 types, concave and convex.

Concave mirrors converge the light rays and convex mirrors diverge them.

There are several events in history showing that spherical mirrors were generally used to start a fire.
