Mirror, Convex
Mirror, Convex (Product Code: SLE/PHY/253) is a 50 mm diameter glass convex mirror used to show how diverging mirrors form small, upright virtual images in school and college optics lessons. It has a 100 mm focal length, an optically worked surface and a silvered back with a protective coating, and it comes in packs of 10 for class sets. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

What Is a Convex Mirror Used For?
Whatever the object distance, a convex mirror gives an image that is virtual, upright and smaller than the object, and students can confirm this by viewing a pencil or their own face at different distances. Comparing its wide field of view with that of a plane mirror explains why convex mirrors are used as vehicle rear-view mirrors and at blind corners.
Finding the 100 mm focal length takes more care than with a concave mirror because the image cannot be caught on a screen; a common method uses a convex lens to form a real image first and then places the mirror in the converging beam so the light retraces its path. Mount the mirror securely, handle it by its edge and keep the protective backing free of scratches. Alongside concave and plane mirrors, it completes a set of optics lab equipment for the reflection topic.
What to Specify When Ordering
- The number of packs required (each pack holds 10 mirrors).
- Whether a convex lens and optical bench should be quoted for the focal-length method.
- Whether concave and plane mirrors are also needed so students can compare all three types.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the focal length of the Mirror, Convex?
The Mirror, Convex has a focal length of 100 mm and a diameter of 50 mm. Because a convex mirror diverges light, its focus is virtual and lies behind the mirror, so students measure it with an auxiliary convex lens rather than a simple screen.
What kind of image does the Mirror, Convex form?
The Mirror, Convex always forms a virtual, upright and diminished image, whatever the distance of the object. This property gives convex mirrors their wide field of view and links the lesson directly to vehicle and road-safety mirrors students see every day.
How many mirrors are in a pack of the Mirror, Convex?
The Mirror, Convex comes in packs of 10, enough for several student groups to compare convex, concave and plane mirrors in the same lesson. Order the number of packs that matches your class size and number of benches.
What is the Mirror, Convex made of?
The Mirror, Convex is optically worked glass with a silvered back and a protective coating over the silvering. Handle it by its edge, avoid placing it face-down on rough benches and wipe it only with a soft, clean cloth.
Who manufactures the Mirror, Convex?
The Mirror, Convex is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, dealers and importers buy it direct from the manufacturer, which also issues quotations.
Can the Mirror, Convex be ordered in bulk?
Yes, the Mirror, Convex can be quoted in bulk packs for schools, colleges, dealers and importers in India and international markets. State the number of packs, any related optics items and your delivery location when you send an enquiry through the contact page.
