The divergent lens in m linear magnification produced by the lens is

A

`m `

B

`1//m`

C

`m + 1`

D

`1/(m + 1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Here `u = mf`
`therefore ` for divergent lens (concave)
`therefore v = (mf)/(m + 1)`
Now magnification = `v/u implies M = (mf)/(m + 1) xx 1/(mf)`
`M = 1/(m + 1)`
