उत्तर
A concave lens is also known as a diverging lens.
Focal length of concave lens, f = -15 cm
Object distance from the lens, u = -40 cm
Height of the object, h1 = 2.0 cm
Height of the image, h2 = ?
Using the lens formula, we get:
`1/f=1/v-1/u`
`1/-15=1/v-1/-40`
`1/-15=1/v+1/40`
`1/v=1/-15-1/40`
`1/v=(-8-3)/120`
`1/v=-11/120`
∴ v = - 10.90 cm
Therefore, the image is formed at a distance of 10.90 cm and to the left of the lens.
Magnification of the lens:
Magnification=`"Image distance"/"object distance"="Height of the image"/"Height of the object"`
`v/u=h_2/h_1`
`-10.90/-40=h_2/2`
h_2=+0.54
The height of the image formed is 0.54 cm. Also, the positive sign of the height of the image shows that the image is erect.
