A convex lens of focal length f forms an image which is 1/3 times the size of the object. Then, the distance of object from the lends is

Two point objects are placed on principal axis of a thin converging lens. One is 20cm from the lens and other is on the other side of lens at a distance of 40 cm from the lens. The images of both objects coincide. The magnitude of focal length of lens is :-

A glass wedge with a small angle of refraction theta is placed at a certain distance from a converging lens with a focal length f ,one surface of the wedge being perpendicular to the optical axis of the lens. A point sources S of light is on the other side of the lens at its focus. The rays reflected from the wedge (not from base) produce, after refraction in the lens , two images of the source displaced with respect to each other by d. Find the refractive index of the wedge glass. [Consider only paraxial rays.]

When the object is at distance u_(1) and u_(2) the images formed by the same lens are real and virtual respectively and of the same size.Then focal length of the lens is:

An object is there on a wall. Now by help of convex lens, an image of object is obtained of same size as of object on the opposite parallel wall. If the lens is at distance d from second wall, then what should be the focal length of lens ?

A convex lens of focal length 30 cm , a concave lens of focal length 120 cm , and a plane mirror are arranged as shown . For an object kept at a distance of 60 cm from the convex lens, the final image, formed by the combination , is a real image , at a distance of : |"Focal length" | = |"Focal length"| = 30 cm " " =120 cm

In the figure shown L is converging lens of focal length 10 cm and M is a concave mirror of radius of curvature 20 cm . A point object O is placed in front of the lens at a distance 15 cm . AB and CD are optical axes of the lens mirror respectively. Find the coordinates of the final image formed by this system taking O as origin. The distance between CD & AB is 1mm.
