Concave/Convex Mirror

Two mirrors in one! This compact and easily stored mirror is convex on one side and concave on the other. The concave side is front-surface - perfect for a physics unit on light and reflection. Curved mirrors are all around us - in stores, telescopes and even in rear view mirrors. Ask your students to explain exactly why 'Objects in mirror are closer than they appear', then, use our mirror to explore, experimentally, light ray diagrams and the science behind magnification. This mirror features reflective coatings on the outside for exceptionally true reflections as well as beveled glass edges, for safety, which are NOT sharp to the touch. Approx. 75 mm in diameter.
