Question

Why concave mirror is used for shaving mirror

Open in App
Solution

They are designed in such a way so that when your face is placed within the focus an enlarged image of the face appears on the mirror. ... They reflect light so that the image formed is of exactly the same size as the object. The other two types of mirrors are convex and concave (shaving/make-up mirrors).
