An object 5 cm in length is held 25 cm away from a converging lens of focal length 10 cm. Draw the ray diagram and find the position, size and the nature of the image formed.

थोडक्यात उत्तर

उत्तर १

Given:

Object distance, u = −25 cm
Object height, ho = 5 cm
Focal length, f = +10 cm
According to the lens formula,

`1/v - 1/u = 1/f`

`1/v = 1/f + 1/u = 1/10 - 1/25 = 15/250`

`v=250/15=16.66` cm

The positive value of v shows that the image is formed at the other side of the lens.

Magnification m =`-"image distance"/"object distance"=-v/u = 16.66/25 = -0.66`

The negative sign shows that the image is real and formed behind the lens.

Magnification m =`"image height"/"object height" = "H"_i/"H"_o = "H"_i/5`

Hi = m × Ho= −0.66 × 5 = −3.3 cm

The negative value of the image height indicates that the image is inverted. The position, size, and nature of image are shown in the following ray diagram.

उत्तर २

Given:
Object distance, u = −25 cm
Focal length, f = 10 cm
Height of the object, h = 5 cm
Applying the lens formula, we get:

`1/f = 1/v - 1/u`

⇒`1/v = 1/f + 1/u`

⇒`1/v = 1/f + 1/u`

⇒`11/2/v = 1/10 + 1/-25`

⇒`1/v = (5 - 2)/50`

⇒ `1/v = 3/50`

⇒ v = `50/3`

⇒ v = 16.67 cm

The image will be at a distance of v cm behind the lens.

m = `"h'"/"h" = "v"/"u"`

⇒ `"h'"/5 = (50/3)/(-25)`

⇒ `"h'"/5 = 50/(3 xx -25)`

⇒ `"h'"/5 = 2/(-3)`

⇒ −3h' = 5 × 2

⇒ −3h' = 10

⇒ h' = `10/(-3)`

⇒ h' = – 3.33 cm

Size of the image: The image is smaller than the object. And the negative sign indicates that the image is real and inverted.

Nature of image: Real and inverted.

A student did an experiment with a convex lens. He put an object at different distances 25 cm, 30 cm, 40 cm, 60 cm and 120 cm from the lens. In each case he measured the distance of the image from the lens. His results were 100 cm, 24 cm, 60 cm, 30 cm and 40 cm, respectively. Unfortunately his results are written in wrong order.
