An object is placed at a distance of 2 m from a plane mirror. If the object is moved 1 m away from the mirror, what is the distance between the object and the image?
Answers
Answer:
6m
Explanation:
in plane mirror the distance between the object and the image from the mirror is always same.
so,
when the object was at a distance of 2m from the plane mirror, the image was also at a distance of 2m from the mirror.
therefore, when the object moved 1m away the plane mirror, the image also move 1m away from the mirror:
(2+1)+(2+1)
=3+3
=6m.
hence the distance between the object and the image is 6m.

Answer:
The distance between the object and image formed is 6 cm.
Explanation:
Object is moved 1 m away,
⇒ 2 + 1
⇒ 3 cm
In plane mirror,
Distance of object from mirror = Distance of image from mirror
As distance of object from mirror is 3 cm, distance of image formed is 3 cm too.
Distance between the object and the image -
⇒ 3 + 3
⇒ 6 cm
Therefore, the distance between the object and image formed is 6 cm.
