प्रश्न

A lens forms the image of an object placed at a distance 15 cm from it, at a distance 60 cm in front of it. Find the magnification.

संख्यात्मक

उत्तर

Object distance, u = -15 cm

Image distance, v = -60 cm

For a lens, magnification is

`"m" = "v"/"u"`

`therefore "m" = (-60)/-15`

∴ m = + 4

Linear magnification produced by a concave mirror may be:

(a) less than 1 or equal to 1
(b) more than 1 or equal than 1
(c) less than 1, more than 1 or equal to 1
(d) less than 1 or more than 1


In order to obtain a magnification of, −1.5 with a concave mirror of focal length 16 cm, the object will have to be placed at a distance 

(a) between 6 cm and 16 cm
(b) between 32 cm and 16 cm
(c) between 48 cm and 32 cm

Draw a diagram to show how a converging lens held close to the eye acts as a magnifying glass. Why is it usual to choose a lens of short focal length for this purpose rather than one of long focal length?


The lens A produces a magnification of, − 0.6 whereas lens B produces a magnification of + 0.6. 

What is the nature of lens B


Draw a ray diagram to show how a converging lens is used as a magnifying glass to observe a small object. Mark on your diagram the foci of the lens and the position of the eye.


At which position will you keep an object in front of convex lens to get a real image smaller than the object? Draw a figure.


Find the position and magnification of the image of an object placed at distance of 8.0 cm in front of a convex lens of focal length 10.0 cm. Is the image erect or inverted?


An object is placed vertically at a distance of 20 cm from a convex lens. If the height of the object is 5 cm and the focal length of the lens is 10 cm, what will be the position, size and nature of the image? How much bigger as compared to the object?


The focal length of a concave lens is 20 cm. At what distance from the lens should a 5 cm tall object be placed so that its image is formed at a distance of 15 cm from the lens? Also calculate the size of the image formed.


What information about the nature of image is erect or inverted, do you get from the sign of magnification + or -?
