when an object of height 6 cm is placed at a distance of 12 cm from the focal centre of the lens the objects 12 cm height reflection is form so,
1. indicate the type of lens?
2. find the magnification of reflection?
3. What is power of lens?
Answers
Answer:(1)Convex
(2)2
(3)0.04167
Explanation:m=h'/h=v/u
12/6=v/-12
v=-12×12/6=-24cm
(1)it is a convex lens because it forms a bigger image of the object.
(2)m=h'/h=12/6=2
(3)1/v-1/u=1/f
1/f=(1/-24)-(1/-12)=1/24
Hence, power =1/f=1/24=0.04167(approx)
(a). The lens is converging.
(b). The magnification is 2.
(c). The power is 4.16 D.
Explanation:
Given that,
Height of the object = 6 cm
Height of the image = 12 cm
Object distance = 12 cm
We need to calculate the image distance
Using formula of magnification
Put the value into the formula
We need to calculate the magnification
Using formula of magnification
Put the value into the formula
We need to calculate the focal length
Using formula of lens
Put the value into the formula
The focal length is positive so the lens will be converging.
We need to calculate the power of lens
Using formula of power
Put the value into the formula
Hence, (a). The lens is converging.
(b). The magnification is 2.
(c). The power is 4.16 D.
