Solution
The correct option is D The image of an object in the plane mirror is the lateral inversion of the object and the image is symmetrical with respect to the object about the plane mirror.
Keeping in mind the lateral inversion and on applying Object distance=Image distance, for the minute and hour hands of the clock we get the following diagram for the image.
Alternative:
Time in the clock, 5:20
Time in the image of the clock 11:60−05:20=06:40
