Question

2. An object is placed at 50 cm in front of a
plane mirror. The distance of its image from
the mirror will be
(a) 50 cm
(b) 100 cm
(d) 75 cm
(c) 25 cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

(b)100 cm

Explanation:

The distance between the object and its mirror image will be 100 cm. This is because any image formed on a plane mirror is at the same distance in the mirror as the object in reality. So, the distance gets doubled.

Hope it helps you.

Answer 2

Answer:

The distance of its image from the mirror will be 50cm i.e.option(a).

Explanation:

The properties of the plane mirror are as follows:-

• The image obtained is a virtual one.
• The process of lateral inversion takes place.
• An erect image is formed.
• The image and the object are of the same size.
• The distance between the image obtained is the same as the distance between the object and the mirror.

So, the distance of its image from the mirror will be 50cm i.e.option(a).
