Ravi wanted to fix the rear-view mirror of his scooter. He knows that rear-view
mirror is an essential safety device in the vehicle and allows him to see objects at
the backside of his vehicle. He bought two mirrors M1 and M2, out of which M1
is curved inwards and M2 is curved outwards.
Based on the given situation, which mirror should Ravi need to fix as his rear-view
mirror?
a) M1 b) M2 c) Both M1 and M2 d) None of these
Answers
Answer:
b) M2
Explanation:
A mirror curved outwards is called a convex mirror. It is used in vehicles as it covers a wider area.
Answer:
B) M2 - curved outwards
Explanation:
A mirror curved outwards is a convex mirror and a convex mirror gives a wide vision of the traffic behind the vehicle and can provide aid to the driver.
A convex mirror is the one always fitted in place of the rear-view mirror since it also helps to see far away objects and gives an idea about the distance too. It also shows the far-away objects in the mirror which helps the driver take turns easily and safely.
On the other hand, an inwardly curved mirror shows the position of the vehicles at different places based on the position of the vehicle too which does not provide a clear idea to the driver about the vehicles coming from behind.
