All objects referred to the subsequent problems lie on the principal axis.

If light is incident on surface `2` from right then which of the following is true for images formed after a single refraction.

A

Real object will result in a real image

B

Virtual object will result in a virtual image

C

Real object will result in a virtual image

D

Virtual object will result in a Real image

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Consider object on left side of spherical surface seperating two media.
If real object is in rarer media i.e. `n_(1) lt n_(2)`
Then `(n_(2))/(v)=(n_(2)-n_(1))/((-u))+(n_(1))/(-R)=-ve`
Hence image shall be virtual for a real object lying
on concave side with rarer media....(1)
If real object is in denser media i.e. `n_(1) gt n_(2)`
`(n_(2))/(v)=(-(n_(1)-n_(2)))/((-u))+(n_(1))/((-R))=(n_(1)-n_(2))/(u)-(n_(1))/(R)`
`:.` Image is real if
`(n_(1)-n_(2))/(u) gt (n_(1))/(R)` or `u lt ((n_(1)-n_(2))R)/(n_(1))`.....(2)
and image is virtual if `u gt((n_(1)-n_(2))/(n_(1)))R`...(3)
From statements `1,2` and `3` we can easily conclude the answers.

An equiconvex lens of refractive index 1.5 has its two surfaces having radius of curvature of 30 cm. A point object has been placed on the principal axis at a distance of 60 cm from the lens. Find the distance of image from the lens formed by the rays which suffer refraction at first surface, reflection at second surface, again a reflection on the first surface and finally a refraction from the second surface.
