A point object `O` is placed on the principal axis of a convex lens of focal length `f=20cm` at a distance of 40 cm to the left of it. The diameter of the lens is 10. An eye is placed 60 cm to right of the lens and a distance `h` below the principal axis. The maximum value of `h` to see the image is

A

0

B

5 cm

C

2.5 cm

D

10 cm

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C


`(h)/(20)=(5)/(40)=(1)/(8) or h=(20)/(8)cm=(5)/(2)cm=2.5cm`
