Answer:
7. Concave and convex mirrors are called spherical mirrors because they are both made from the sphere. The difference between the two (in the simplest terms) is that diminished images form in convex mirrors while enlarged images form in concave mirrors.
8. The word ambulance is written inverted on an ambulance is because when a driver is driving and sees an ambulance in their rearview mirror, they can see the word ambulance the correct way. Otherwise the word ambulance would be backwards in the mirror. Thats why they write it backwards.
9. A plane mirror forms the image, object, etc, the same exact size that it is. The mirror can be small or large the size of the image will stay the same. So the difference between the object in a small and large plane mirror is none, there is no difference.
10. Car rearview mirrors are curved. This is to give a wider viewing angle. Flat surface mirrors give an accurate reflection. since the rearview mirrors are not flat, they are curved, they are less accurate, so thats why they have a warning label.
11. The sun emits the color of white. And as we know the color white consists of all colors. We can test this by putting the sunlight through a prism. since different colors of light travels at different speeds in the glass we cand see the light 'bent' .
12. Solar cookers use concave mirrors. This is because the mirror reflects the sunlight to a focal, 'center,' point. This center point will eventually heat up very, very hot.
