Cars are usually fitted with convex side-view mirrors. (i)What is the reason for using of a convex mirror for such purpose? If the focal length of the mirror is -32 cm and the viewed image of a trailing vehicle is reduced in size by a factor of 40, determine: (ii) the distance between the two cars. (iii) The position of the image. (iv) Sketch a ray diagram showing how is the image will be formed.
