A point object `O` is placed in front of a glass rod having spherical end of radius of curvature `30cm`. The image would be formed at

`30 cm` left

Infinity

`1 cm` to the right

`18 cm ` to the left

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

By using formula `(mu_(2))/(v)-(mu_(1))/(u)=(mu_(2)-mu_(1))/(R)`
`implies(1.5)/(v)-(1)/((-15))=((1.5-1))/(+30)implies v= -30cm.`
Negative sign shows that, image is obtained on the same side of object `i.e.,` towards left.
