Question

Two plane mirror are placed parallel to each other and $40cm$ apart$.$ An object is placed $10cm$ from one mirror. What is the distance from the object to the image for each of the 5 images that are closest to the object?

• A. 10 cm
• B. 20 cm
• C. 30 cm
• D. 40 cm

Answer 1

The correct option is A 10 cm

Suppose the object is at $10cm$ from mirror $A$ and $30cm$ from mirror $B$

hence $,$it is near to mirror hence the distance should be less than $10cm$ for getting closest images

Hence,

option $\left(A\right)$ is correct answer.
