Detailed Solution

Magnification produced by a rear-view mirror fitted in vehicles is less than one.
A convex mirror is a curved mirror where the reflecting surface bulges out towards the light source. The rear mirror in the vehicle is convex, and therefore, the image produced is virtual, erect and diminished. Therefore, the magnification of the mirror is less than 1. The area covered by a convex mirror is more than that of a concave mirror, and hence, a convex mirror is preferred.
