A diverging lens of focal length 10cm is placed 10cm in front of a plane mirror as shown in Fig. Light from a very far away source falls on the lens. What is the distance of final image?

10cm from the mirror

infinite away from mirror

20cm from mirror

no image will be formed behind mirror

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

`I_(1)` is the image formed by the lens which will act as object for mirror. Mirror will form image `I_(2)` of `I_(1)` .
Such that `MI_(1)=MI_(2)`.
