Solution and Explanation
The formula for the focal length \(f\) of a convex mirror is:
\[
f = \frac{R}{2}
\]
where \(R\) is the radius of curvature of the mirror.
The uses of a convex mirror are: 1. Convex mirrors are used in vehicles as rearview mirrors because they provide a wider field of view. 2. They are used in security systems to monitor large areas.
