प्रश्न
A converging lens of focal length 5 cm is placed at a distance of 20 cm from a screen. How far from the lens should an object be placed so as to form its real image on the screen?
उत्तर
Given:
Focal length, f = 5 cm
Image distance, v = Distance of the lens from the screen = +20 cm (for real image)
Object distance, u = ?
Applying lens formula, we get:
1/v-1/u = 1/f
1/20-1/u = 1/5
Or,
1/u = 1/20-1/5 =-3/20
Or,
u =-20/3 =-6.6 cm
Thus, to form a real image, the object should be placed at a distance of 6.6 cm from the lens.
