**Diagram 5: Optical System with Convex Lens and Plane Mirror**

The diagram illustrates an optical system consisting of a convex lens and a plane mirror. The key components and details include:

1. **Object**: Represented by a simple stick figure on the left side of the diagram.

2. **Convex Lens**: Positioned between the object and the plane mirror, depicted as a blue lens. It is typically used to converge light rays.

3. **Distances**:
    - \(d_1\): The distance from the object to the convex lens.
    - \(d_2\): The distance from the convex lens to the plane mirror.

4. **Plane Mirror**: Shown on the right side of the diagram, represented as a blue rectangle. It reflects light back through the system.

The setup demonstrates the concept of light reflection and refraction through a lens followed by a mirror, which is fundamental in understanding optical paths in various devices.

Refer to diagram 5.

An object stands at distance \( d_1 = 54.7 \, \text{cm} \) from a convex lens of focal length \( f = 12.4 \, \text{cm} \); a plane mirror is distance \( d_2 = 72.3 \, \text{cm} \) behind the lens. The lens creates a real image of Harry in front of the mirror. The mirror creates two virtual images:
- an image of the object itself
- an image of the lens image reflected in the mirror.

Find the distance, in cm, between these two images created by the mirror. (This quantity should be positive!)
