Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Concave mirror:

A hollow spherical can be made into a mirror by cutting it into pieces, painting the exterior surface, and using the interior surface as the reflecting surface. Concave mirrors are this kind of mirror.

Characteristics of Concave mirror:

• When it hits and reflects back from the concave mirror's reflecting surface, light converges at a single point.
• This is why it is sometimes referred to as a converging mirror.
• A magnified, upright, and virtual image can be obtained when the concave mirror is positioned very close to the item.
• The size of the image, however, decreases as the distance between the item and the mirror increases, creating a true and inverted image instead.
• The concave mirror can produce a little or huge, real or virtual image.

Shaving mirrors are concave mirrors. This is because it allows us to closely examine our face because it creates a virtual, erect, and magnified image of our face when held in front of the face at a distance that is less than its focal length.

Hence concave mirror is used as shaving mirror.
