Uses of concave mirrors:
Satellite Dishes: One of the most important use of concave mirror is satellite dishes. These are used to receive the weaker signals sent from the communication satellites and then amplify it. These signals strikes the concave mirror in parallel rays and gets reflected back. These reflected rays are concentrated at the focus of the mirror. The main purpose of this mirror is to gather weaker signals coming from large areas and concentrate them at one point.
Headlights in car: A powerful source of light is kept at the focus point of the concave mirror in a smaller space at the back of the headlight. Any light striking the mirror from focus will get reflected parallel to the axis of the concave mirror.Convex Mirrors
Shaving mirror: Another use of concave mirror is shaving mirror. The image formed after the reflections of the concave mirrors is helpful for people while shaving.
