Mirrors are specifically designed to reflect light. They are made of a smooth, highly reflective surface, often coated with a thin layer of silver or aluminum.
Here are some types of mirrors used to reflect sunlight:
* Plane mirrors: Reflect light in a straight line, creating an image that is the same size as the object.
* Concave mirrors: Curve inward, concentrating light at a focal point, making it hotter. This is used in solar ovens and some solar power systems.
* Convex mirrors: Curve outward, spreading out light, creating a wider field of view. These are used in car rearview mirrors and security cameras.
