The image of an objectO 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, whereO and the observerE are at the same height above the surface of the lake. If the maximum angle that the ripples make with the horizontal is α, then the angular extent δ of the image will be
