Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

When an object is placed between two plane parallel mirrors, then infinite number of images are formed.

Images are formed due to multiple reflections.

At each reflection, a part of light energy is absorbed.

Therefore, distant images get fainter.
