an object 2 cm in size is placed 30 cm in front of a convex lens of focal length 15 cm. at what distance from a mirror a screen should be placed in order to obtain image?draw a ray diagram
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
HELLO DEAR,
GIVEN:
size of object h = +2cm distance of object u = -30cm focal length f = -15cm
by mirror formula, 1/v + 1/u = 1/f
=> 1/v = 1/f-1/u
=> 1/v = 1/(-15) - 1/(-30)
=> 1/v = 1/30 - 1/15
=> 1/v = (1-2)/30
=> 1/v = -1/30
=> v= -30cm
the screen should be placed at 30cm in front of the mirror so, we obtain a real image
magnification, m = h'/h = -v/u where, h' = size of image
then, h'/h = -v/u
=> h'/2 = -(-30/-30)
=> h' = -2cm
hence, the image formed is real and the same size as object
I HOPE IT'S HELP YOU DEAR, THANKS
Answer:
Thus, the screen should placed at 30 cm in front of the mirror so as to obtain the real image. The image is real, inverted and of the same size as the object. The image formation is shown in the ray diagram given below. A concave lens of focal length 15 cm forms an image 10 cm from the lens.
