Optic axis of a thin equiconvex lens is ...

Optic axis of a thin equiconvex lens is the x-axis. The co-rodinates of a point object and its image axis `(-40 cm, 1 cm)` and `(50 cm, -2 cm)` respectively. Lens is located at

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`m = (-2)/(1) = -2 = (v)/(u) implies |v| = |2u|`
`(90-u) = 2u implies u = 30 "cm"`

Hence lens location = -40 + 30 =-10 cm

Optic axis of a thin equi-convex lens is the x-axis. The co-ordinates of a point object and its image are (-40 cm,1 cm) and (50 cm,-2 cm), respectively. Lens is located at

The principal axis of a thin equi-convex lens is the x-axis. The co-ordinate of a point object and its image are (– 20 cm, 1 mm) and (25 cm, 2 mm) respectively. Find the focal length of the lens.

When an object is moved along the axis is of a lens images three times the size, of the object are obtained when the object is at 16 cm and at 8 cm respectively from the lens. The focal length and nature of the lens are

A point object is located at a distance of 15 cm, from the front surface of a thick bi-convex lens. The lens is 10 cm thick and radii of its front and back surfaces are 10 cm and 25 cm respectively. How fae beyond the back surface of this lens (mu=1.5) is the image formed?

Plane surface of a thin plano-convex lens is silvered. If a point object is placed on principal axis at a distance 60cm from the lens and fial image is formed at a distance 30cm from the lens on same side. What will be the distance of final imagge from the lens if the plane surface is not silvered.

For a given optical system, the principal axis is x-axis and coordinates of object are (-30,+1,0) and coordinates of image are (+20,-2,0) All coordinates are in cm. If the optical system is a convex lens, what is its focal length?
