Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

When an object is placed in front of a plane mirror, object distance is equal to the image distance. In the first case, the image distance will be 12 cm from the mirror. In the next case, as the mirror is moved towards the object, the object distance becomes 8 cm. Hence, image distance will also be 8 cm.
