Answer:
4 m
Explanation:
the distance of the object in front of the mirror is equal to the distance between the mirror to the image.
hence if the image is 6m from the mirror then object then 6m then if he moves 2m the object distance is 4m

The distance between the person and his image would be 8 m.
Explanation:
In plane mirror, object distance and image distance are equal.
That is, v = u
v is the distance of image from mirror.
u is the distance of object from mirror.
Given v =6 m so u = 6 m.
Therefore, total distance between object and image = v + u = 12 m.
Now as per question, person moves 2 m towards mirror, then,
v = u = 6 - 2= 4 m.
Thus, distance between the person and his image would be, 4 +4 = 8 m.
