(b) is less than one
(c) is more than one
(d) can be more less than one depending on the position of object

Answer 1

Answer:

b.is less than one

BECAUSE A REAR VIEW MIRROR (CONVEX )ALWAYS PRODUCED A DIMINISHED IMAGE.

Height of image <Height of object.

Answer 2

Linear magnification produced by a rear-view mirror is less than one.

Explanation:

• In vehicles, the convex mirror is used. We should know that convex mirrors form erect, virtual and diminished images. It is to be understood that magnification is the ratio of  the image’s height to the object’s height.  

• Magnification (M) = height  of  image (hi)/ height  of  object (ho)  

• Thus, the rear-view mirror present in the vehicles has a magnification of less than one.
