  • A
    $4\pi nR$
  • B
    $2\pi nR$
  • C
    $\frac{nR}{2\pi}$
  • D

The image of an object $O$ due to reflection from the surface of a lake is elongated due to the ripples on the water surface caused by a light breeze. This is because the ripples act as tilted mirrors as shown below. Consider the case,where $O$ and the observer $E$ are at the same height above the surface of the lake. If the maximum angle that the ripples make with the horizontal is $\alpha$,then the angular extent $\delta$ of the image will be
