A convex lens of focal length 0.10 misused to form a magnified image of an object of height 5 m placed at a distance of 0.08 m from the lens. Calculate the position, nature and size of the image.

Question

Philoid · Accepted Answer

f = 0.10 m

m = 5 m

object distance (u) = 0.08 m

using the lens formula,

v = - 0.40 m ;

The position of image is 0.40 m from the lens on the same side as the object

(on the left of lens);

The nature of image is virtual and erect; The size of image is 25 m.
