This is the correct answer of this question

May be this will help full for u.

Answer 2

Hii there,

● Answer -
Position => 36 cm
Size => 20 cm
Nature => maximized, real & inverted image


● Explanation -
# Given -
u = -18 cm
h1 = 10 cm
f = 12 cm

# Solution -
Using lens formula,
1/f = 1/v - 1/u
1/12 = 1/v - 1/-18
1/v = 1/12 - 1/18
v = 36 cm

Magnification by lens is calculated by -
M = -v/u = h2/h1
h2 = -h1 × v / u
h2 = -10 × 36 / (-18)
h2 = 20 cm

Therefore, real & inverted image of size 20 cm is formed 36 cm in front of convex lens.

Hope this helped...
