$A$ monochromatic beam of light enters a square enclosure with mirrored interior surfaces at an angle of incidence $\theta_i(\neq 0)$ (see figure). For some value$(s)$ of $\theta_i$,the beam is reflected by every mirrored wall (other than the one with the opening) exactly once and exits the enclosure through the same hole. Which of the following statements about this beam is correct?

For a plane mirror,the focal length is . . . . . . $m$.

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
