A concave mirror bulges away from the incident light.
The image of an object depends on where exactly the object is placed - relative the to focal length of the mirror.

Is a mirror that curves inward concave in shape?
yes concave is like a cave
Does the image formed by a concave mirror changes depending on the focal length of the mirror?
Yes its like a normal mirror close up but furthur back it is upside down.
How many parallel lines does a concave have?
A concave is not a shape. It is a characteristic of one. It is like asking how many parallel lines a small has.
What does symetric mean?
It is when one shape becomes exactly like another if you flip or turn it. The simplest type is reflection or mirror.
How does PPC graph of unemployment looks like?
There is no shift in the PPC.Only a dot is marked within the curve(Not on the curve) in the exact center of the two axes.The shape of the PPC is concave to the origin.

What is a polygon difference shape Concave and Convex?
Okay, you know those big mirror like things that they have in hospitals on stores to see whats coming around the corner? Well those mirror things are convex. The mirror ones that 'cave in' are concave. And they are different from a polygon because they really don't have sides like squares or rectangles:) Hope this helped.
What is a shape of a convex mirror?
Imagine if you cut a mirror shaped like a ball in half. The inside half is the concave mirror, and the outside half is a convex mirror.
Is a convex lens more like a convex mirror or a concave mirror in the way it produces images?
Closely Convex mirror like to be a mirror than concave mirror.
What is a concave mirror?
A concave mirror is curved like the inside of a bowl instead of being flat.
What do you mean by convex mirror and concave mirror?
concave and convex refer to the curve of the mirror. if it is concave, it curves in at the middle, like a 'cave'. if it is convex, it curves out at the middle, like an eye. think of a spoon - one side is convex, the other is concave. this curve will affect the image the mirror shows.
A mirror with a surface that curves inward like the inside of a bowl is a?
concave mirror
What is the shape of a concave mirror?
A concave mirror has a surface that curves inward like a bowl. When parallel light rays approach a curved surface and strike at different points on the curve, each ray will reflect at a slightly different direction :) Hope this answers your question
How is a concave mirror shaped differently from a plane mirror?
A normal mirror is flat, like this: l . A concave mirror on the other hand, has a slight inward curve, like this: ( . And, if you're interested, a convex mirror has a slight outward curve, like this: ) . This is to provide a wider view.
Can a concave mirror act as a convex mirror?
If this mirror is reflective on both sides, then it can be both concave and convex. Otherwise, the two cannot act like one another.
Can a convex mirror act as concave mirror?
If this mirror is reflective on both sides, then it can be both concave and convex. Otherwise, the two cannot act like one another.
Compare concave mirror to convex mirror?
They both will give distorted images, but where a convex mirror (which bulges out like a bubble) has a right-side up image, a concave mirror (which bows in like a bowl) has an upside-down image.
