An object is placed 12cm in front of a lens to form an image on a screen. The size of the image is twice that of the object. What is the distance between the object and the image?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`m=2=(v)/(u)rArrv=2u=2xx12=24 cm`
Distance between object and image: `12+24=36cm. `
