Solution
The correct option is B Shinning mirror
An object that does not emit light on its own is known as a non-luminous object. We know that a mirror is a non-luminous object that does not have its own light. When sunlight falls on the surface of a mirror, then it is reflected or sent by the mirror towards a certain direction. It appears as if the light is being given out by the mirror itself. However, in reality, sunlight is reflected from the surface of the mirror. Thus, the mirror behaves as a non-luminous object. It works as a reflector of the sunlight just like the moon.
