A convex lens is placed on an optical bench and is moved till it gives a real image of an object at a minimum distance of 80 cm from the latter. Find the focal length of the lens. If the object is placed at a distance of 15 cm from the lens, find the position of the image.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`f = 20`, virtual and erect image at 60 cm from the lens on the same side as the object
