Convex mirror setup with two objects at different distances along the principal axis.
Convex mirror setup with two objects at different distances along the principal axis.
A convex security mirror has a focal length of magnitude \(|f|\). Two identical upright objects, Object 1 and Object 2, are placed on the principal axis in front of the mirror at distances \(d_1\) and \(d_2\) from the mirror surface, respectively, where \(d_1 < d_2\). Which of the following correctly compares the magnitudes of the magnifications \(|M_1|\) and \(|M_2|\) of the images formed by the mirror, and provides a correct justification?
