Optics Question 789

Question: A plane mirror is kept parallel to y-axis. A point object is approaching the mirror with velocity $ \vec{u}=(10\hat{i}+10\hat{j})m/s. $ The magnitude of relative velocity of objective w.r.t image is equal to

Options:

A) $ 20\sqrt{2}m/s $

B) $ 20m/s $

C) $ 10\sqrt{2}m/s $

D) $ 10m/s $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

[b] Velocity of image in mirror

$ \vec{v}=-10\hat{i}+10\hat{j}\text{ }$

${{\vec{v}} _{rel}}=\vec{u}-\vec{v}=20\hat{i}. $
