Detailed Solution

A concave mirror is used in the torches.
Concave mirrors are converging mirrors. Concave mirrors are used in searchlights and torches so that we have a more focused light beam which will not diverge out and hence help in searching for things. It is used for different light rays falling on it to converge to a single point.
In the torch, the bulb is fixed at the focus of the concave mirror, so the light rays become parallel after reflecting from the mirror surface.Question Image
