    Why is it when I look into a spoon, my reflection is upside down?

    Question #7165. Asked by Sara. (Oct 20 00 8:28 AM)

    Basically, because the spoon is curved inward. Rays from the top of your face will be reflected going downwards, rays from the bottom of your face will be reflected going upwards, creating an inverted image.

    Reversal of image is the property of reflection of a concave mirror. (Inwardly curved is concave and outwardly curved is convex).
