To solve the problem of finding the position of a converging lens such that the images of two point sources of light are formed at the same point, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define Variables Let: - The distance between the two point sources A and B = 24 cm. - The focal length of the converging lens, f = 9 cm. - The distance from point source A to the lens = x cm. - The distance from point source B to the lens = (24 - x) cm. ...

A point source of light is placed inside water and a thin converging lens of focal length f is placed just outside the surface of water. The image of source is formed at a distance of 50 cm from the surface of water. When the lens is placed just inside the water surface the image is formed at a distance of 40 cm from the surface of water. if focal length of the lens in air is f=(100k)/8 cm, then find the value of k. (given refractive index of lens is 3/2 and that of water is 4/3 and in both cases image is formed inside water for the viewer in air).
