Question

If we put a flammable material in a point where many light rays converge we can set it on fire. With what type of spherical mirror would it be possible to do this

Answer 1

Concave mirror

Step-by-step explanation:

A concave mirror is a type that has the property of converging rays of light that are parallel to the principal axis to a point of focus. Thus, for the convergence of many rays of light (i.e a beam of light) as required in the given question, a concave mirror would serve the purpose. Curved mirrors have various applications in optics.
