A person uses a lens of power `+3D` to normalise vision. Near point of hypermetropic eye is

A

1 m

B

1.66 m

C

2 m

D

0.66 m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`f = (100)/(3) cm `
`(1)/(f) = (1)/(v) - (1)/(u) rArr (3)/(100) = (1)/(v) - (1)/(-25) rArr v = - 100 cm = -1 `m.
