From convex lens height of an object 50 cm , height of image is 20 cm image distance is 10 cm find the focal length
Answers
Answer:
here is ur answer
Explanation:
The 'focal length' of convex length is 7.14 cm. The image distance is the distance between the position of convex lens and the position where the image is formed

Answer:
focal length=
Explanation:
The given quantities are
Height of the object h = 50 cm
Height of the image formed h’ = -20 cm
Image distance v = 10 cm
The image distance is the distance between the position of convex lens and the position where the image is formed.
The ‘focal length’ of a convex lens can be found using the below formula
\bold{\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{u}}
Here f is the focal length, v is the image distance which is known to us and u is the object distance.
The object distance is the distance between the ‘object position’ and the lens position. To determine the focal length, first we should find the object distance.
From the magnification equation, we know that
\text {Magnification}=\frac{h^{\prime}}{h}=\frac{v}{u}
Thus,
\begin{aligned} \frac{h^{\prime}}{h} &=\frac{v}{u} \\ \\ \frac{-20}{50} &=\frac{10}{u} \end{aligned}
So, the object distance will be
u=-10 \times \frac{50}{20}=-25 \mathrm{cm}
So the focal length will be
\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{10}-\frac{1}{(-25)}=\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{25}
\frac{1}{f}=\frac{25+10}{250}=\frac{35}{250}
f=\frac{250}{35}=\frac{50}{7}=7.14 \mathrm{cm}
Thus the focal length of the convex lens is 7.14 cm
