Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
A plane mirror is a mirror having a flat reflective surface coated with mercury so that it can reflect most of the light falling upon it.
Question ImageThe ray diagram show formation of the image from a plane mirror. Being electrically conductive, a mirror can reflect rays of light, and light being electromagnetic, when it hits a mirror, it cancels out the electric field parallel to the mirror, causes changes in the direction of light and gets reflected away.
