Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Convex lens :
(i) Object position : (u = `infty`)
Image position : At F
Image type : Real and inverted
Image size : Highly diminished
Magnification :m `lt lt` -1

(ii) Object position : Between 2F and `infty`
Image position : Between F and 2F
Image type : Real and inverted
Image size : Diminished
Magnification :m `lt` -1

(iii) Object position : At 2F (u = 2F)
Image position : At 2F
Image type : Real and inverted
Image size : Same as of object
Magnification : m = -1

(iv) Object position : Between F and 2F
Image position : Between 2F and `infty`
Image type : Real and inverted
Image size : Magnified
Magnification : m `gt `-1

(v) Object position : At F
Image position : At `infty`
Image type : Real and inverted
Image size : Highly magnified
Magnification : m `gt gt` -1

(vi) Object position : Between F and P
Image position : In direction of object
Image type : Virtual and erect
Image size : Magnified
Magnification : m `gt` 1

Concave lens :
(vii) Object position : At `infty`
Image position : At F (towards object)
Image type : Virtual and erect
Image size : Point like
Magnification : m `lt lt ` + 1

(viii) Object position : At any distance on axis
Image position : Between optical centre and F
Image type : Virtual and erect
Image size : Diminished
Magnification : m `lt` +1

Give object and image distances, type, size and magnification for object placed in front of spherical mirror.

For normal eye vision what is the object distance and image-distance when the object is placed at a far point? (Take the distance between the eye lens and the retina as 2.3 cm.)

Write equation for image formed by thin lens.

For normal eye vision what is the object distance and image-distance when the object is placed at a near point? (Take the distance between the eye lens and the retina as 2.3 cm.)

In the displacement method , a convex lens is placed in between an object and a screen . If one of them magnification is 3 and the displacement of the lens between the two positions is 24 cm , then the focal length of the lens is :-

In figure , L is half part of an equiconvex glass lens (mu=1.5) whose surfaces have radius of curvature R =40cm and its right surface is silvered . Normal to its principal axis a plane mirror M is placed on right of the lens . Distance between lens L and mirror M is b. A small object O is placed on left of the lens such that there is no parallax between final images formed by the lens and mirror. If transverse length of final image formed by lens is twice that of image formed by the mirror , calculate distance'a' in cm between lens and object.

You have learnt in the text how Huygens’ principle leads to the laws of reflection and refraction. Use the same principle to deduce directly that a point object placed in front of a plane mirror produces a virtual image whose distance from the mirror is equal to the object distance from the mirror

A thin convex lens from a real Image of a certain object 'p' times it size .The size of real image become 'q' times that of object when the lens is moved nearer to the object by a distance 'a' find focal length of the lens?

A convex lens is placed between an object and a screen which are at a fixed distance apart for one position of the lens. The magnification of the image obtained on the screen is m_(1) . When the lens is moved by a distance d the magnification of the image obtained on the same screen m_(2) , Find the focal length of the lens.
