Question
What is the magnification produced by a rear view mirror fitted in vehicles?
✓
Answer
The convex mirror forms virtual, erect and diminished image of the object and rearview mirror also form some type of image.
Therefore, magnification (m) produced by a rear view mirror fitted in vehicles is less than one i.e., m < 1.
Magnification (m) $=\frac{\text{Image height}}{\text{Objects height}}$
