If your face is 62 cm in front of a plane mirror, where is the image of your face located?

A. 62 cm behind the mirror
B. 62 cm below the mirror
C. 62 cm in front of the mirror
D. 31 cm in front of the mirror

Answer :

The image of your face would be located 62 cm behind the plane mirror, which is the same distance as your face is in front of it, reflecting the law of reflection.

If your face is 62 cm in front of a plane mirror, the image of your face is located 62 cm behind the mirror. Plane mirrors create images that are virtual, upright, and the same size as the object being reflected. The law of reflection states that the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection, and as a result, images formed by plane mirrors appear to be the same distance behind the mirror as the object is in front of it. This phenomenon can be observed with any reflective surface, like a bathroom mirror, where you see your image appearing to be the same distance behind the glass as you are in front of it.
