An object is placed at a distance of $12\,cm$ in front of a plane mirror. $A$ virtual and erect image is formed by the mirror. Now,the mirror is moved by $4\,cm$ towards the stationary object. The distance by which the position of the image would be shifted is:

  • A
    $4\,cm$ towards the mirror
  • B
    $8\,cm$ towards the mirror
  • C
    $8\,cm$ away from the mirror
  • D
    $2\,cm$ towards the mirror
