Open in App
Solution

Dear student,
​​​​​​Power is the degree to which a lens, mirror, or other optical system converges or diverges light. It is equal to the reciprocal of the focal length of the device: P = 1/f.
Since focal length of plane mirror is infinity, hence it's power will be zero.
Regards.
