प्रश्न

A convex lens of focal length 20 cm is placed coaxially in contact with a concave lens of focal length 25 cm. Determine the power of the combination. Will the system be converging or diverging in nature?

उत्तर

We have

focal length of convex lens, f1 = +20cm = +0.20 m

focal length of convex lens, f2 = - 25cm = +0.25 m

Equivalent focal length, `F = 1/(f_1)+1/(f_1)=1/20+1/(-25)=1/(100)`

∴ F = 100cm

Power of convex lens, `P_1 = 1/f_1=1/0.20`

Power of concave lens, `P_2 = 1/f_2 = 1/(-0.25)`

Power of the combination, p = p1 + p2

`= 1/0.20 +1/-0.25`

`=100/20 +100/-25`

=`(500 - 400)/100`

=`100/100`

= 1 D

The focal length of the combination = 1 m = 100 cm

As the focal length is in positive, the system will be converging in nature.

The convex surface of a thin concavo-convex lens of glass of refractive index 1.5 has a radius of curvature 20 cm. The concave surface has a radius of curvature 60 cm. The convex side is silvered and placed on a horizontal surface as shown in figure. (a) Where should a pin be placed on the axis so that its image is formed at the same place? (b) If the concave part is filled with water (μ = 4/3), find the distance through which the pin should be moved so that the image of the pin again coincides with the pin.


Two concave mirrors of equal radii of curvature R are fixed on a stand facing opposite directions. The whole system has a mass m and is kept on a frictionless horizontal table following figure. Two blocks A and B, each of mass m, are placed on the two sides of the stand. At t = 0, the separation between A and the mirrors is 2 R and also the separation between B and the mirrors is 2 R. The block B moves towards the mirror at a speed v. All collisions which take place are elastic. Taking the original position of the mirrors-stand system to be x = 0 and X-axis along AB, find the position of the images of A and B at t = (a) `R/v`  (b)  `3R/v` (c) `5R/v`.
