Magnification produced by a convex mirror for a given object of height 5 cm is 0.2. Here, the height of the image is _______.

Correct option is D

Correct Answer:D. 1 cm

Explanation:

The magnification (M) produced by a mirror is defined as:

​$$M= \frac{\text{Height of Image (h')}}{\text{Height of Object (h)}}$$​​

Here:

• Magnification, M=0.2
• Height of Object, h=5 cm
• Height of Image, h′=?

Using the formula:

h′=M×h

Substitute the values:

h′=0.2×5=1 cm
