If a toy car travels at a speed of 2 m/s towards a plane mirror, then at what speed will the image of
the car would run towards the mirror? (HOTS)


STEP BY STEP ​

Answer 1

Answer:

2 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of an object depends on the time as well as distance. since it is  a plane mirror the distance is same.

Initial distance = Final distance = x

And time is also same

Initial time = Final time = y

Speed = D / T

2 = x/y   --------(1)

But Speed of image = D / T

                                 = x / y -------(2)

From (1) and (2)

Speed of Image = 2 m/s
