Question

Problem Suppose that you are walkingperpendicularly with a velocity of +0.9 m/s toward a stationaryplane mirror. What is the velocity of your image relative to you?The direction in which you walk is the positive direction.

Explanation / Answer

as the distance of the object and distance of the image from theplane mirror are equal always the image velocity would be 0.9m/sec towards mirror with respect to ground with respect to us is -0.9-(+0.9)=-1.8m/sec -ve sign indicates it is moving towards us
