Generation

Magnification tells you how much larger or smaller an image appears compared to the actual object. It's calculated by dividing the image height by the object height (m = h'/h), or alternatively, the image distance by the object distance (m = -v/u). A magnification greater than 1 means the image is enlarged, less than 1 means it's reduced, and negative values indicate the image is inverted (upside-down) compared to the object. For example, if m = -2, your image is twice as tall as the object and flipped upside-down.
