A man sits in an optician’s chair, looking into a plane mirror which is 2 m away from him and views the image of a chart which faces the mirror and is 50 cm behind his head. How far away from his eyes does the chart appear to be ?

Answer»

Distance between the man and the mirror = 2 cm 

Distance between man and chart = 50 cm = 0.5 m 

Distance between chart and mirror = 0.5 m + 2 m = 2.5 m 

Distance between mirror and the image of the chart = 2.5 m 

Distance between man and the image of chart = Distance between man and the mirror +  Distance between mirror and the image of the chart = 2 m + 2.5 m = 4.5 m
