Answer:

20cm

It is one of the characteristics of a plane mirror that, the distance of the plane mirror from the object is equal to its distance from the image. Therefore, given distance between object and mirror = 10cm. Distance between mirror and image = 10cm. Thus, the distance between object and image = 10 + 10 = 20cm.
