what is the type of mirror? write the defination of their respective own words
Answers
Mirrors can be broadly classified as plane mirrors, rotating mirrors, inclined mirrors and spherical mirrors. Moreover, spherical mirrors can be further classified into two types, i.e. a concave spherical mirror and a convex spherical mirror.
1) plane mirrors
2) concave mirror
3) convex mirror.
★ plane mirror
A plane mirror can be easily defined as the mirrors those are flat in surface and are without any inward or outward curve.Plane mirrors reflect light at the same angle it hits the mirror, so there is very little distortion of the image, if any. The type of mirror that's hanging in your bathroom is a plane mirror.
★ concave mirror
These are the spherical mirror that is curved outward and the image obtained is virtual, diminished and erect for a real object.
★ convex mirror
These are the spherical mirror that is curved inward and the image obtained from these mirrors depend on the placement of the object.
