Question

name the type of mirror used in the following situation first headlight of a car second year view mirror of a vehicle third solar furnace support your answer with reason

Answer 1

1. concave mirror The headlamp's concave mirror is open on one end, and the light bulb's filament is placed at or near the focus. Parallel ight rays, if they were coming into the headlamp from outside (say, the driver is driving his car in the direction of the setting sun), would converge near the filament of the light bulb.
2. convex mirror Because the image is smaller, more image can fit onto the mirror
3. Concave mirrors are used in solar furnaces, because concave mirrors are the only type of mirror that reflects light in toward a single focal point.
