A convex lens of focal length `f` is placed somewhere in between an object and a screen. The distance between the object and the screen is `x`. If the numerical value of the magnification produced by the lens is `m`, then the focal lnegth oof the lens is .

A

`(mx)/((m+1)^(2))`

B

`(mx)/((m-1)^(2))`

C

`((m+1)^(2))/m`x

D

`((m-1)^(2))/m`x

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

(d) Here, x=u+v
Magnification, `m=f/(f-u)=(f-v)/f\
