CHECK THE SOLUTION.
Sol.

= Velocity of object = (9
+ 2
) m/s
= Velocity of mirror = 2
m/s
m =
=
= – 2
For velocity component parallel to optical axis
(
) || = – m 2 (
) |
(
) || = – (–2) 2 11
= – 44
m/s
For velocity component perpendicular to optical axis
(
) ⊥ ⊥ = (
) ⊥ ⊥
= – (–2) 12
= – 24
m/s
= Velocity of image w.r.t. mirror
= (
) || + (
) ⊥ ⊥
= (– 44
– 24
) m/s
Also,
=
– 
or
=
+ 
= (– 44
– 24
) – 2 
= (– 46
– 24
) m/s.
