1. A convex lens forms a real and inverted image of a needle at a distance of 10 cm from it. Where is the needle placed in front of the convex lens if the image is equal to the size of the object? Calculate its focal length and Draw the ray diagram for the same
Answers
Answer:
hope it helps you
Explanation:
mage distance (v) = 50 cm
Let the object distance be u
Magnification in a lens (m) = v/u
-1 = 50/u
u = -50 cm
The needle is placed 50 cm in front of the convex lens.
Need to find the focal length (f)
According to the lens formula,
1/f = 1/v – 1/u
1/f = 2/50
1/f = 1/25
f = 25cm
Power of the lens p = 1/f
P = 1/25cm-1
P = 1/25 × 10-2 m-1
P = 4m-1
Since 1m-1 = 1D
∴ P = 4D

Explanation:
Image formed is real and inverted
∴ Magnifications (m) = -1
Since the image is real, image distance is a positive value.
Image distance (v) = 50 cm
Let the object distance be u
Magnification in a lens (m) = v/u
-1 = 50/u
u = -50 cm
The needle is placed 50 cm in front of the convex lens.
Need to find the focal length (f)
According to the lens formula,
1/f = 1/v – 1/u
1/f = 2/50
1/f = 1/25
f = 25cm
Power of the lens p = 1/f
P = 1/25cm-1
P = 1/25 × 10-2 m-1
P = 4m-1
Since 1m-1 = 1D
∴ P = 4D
