The distance between the object and its image formed by a plane mirror appears to be 24 cm. What is the distance between the mirror and the object?
Angle of incidence is greater than the angle of reflection.
Diffused reflection gives a sharp image.
Assertion (A): A ray incident along normal to the mirror retraces its path.
Reason (R): In reflection, the angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection.
