उत्तर

Since the image is real and same size. The position of image should be at 2F.

It is given that the image of the needle is formed at a distance of 50 cm from the convex lens. Hence, the needle is placed in front of the lens at a distance of 50 cm.

Object distance, u = – 50 cm

Image distance, v = 50 cm

Focal length = f

According to the lens formula,

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

`1/f = 1/50 - 1/(-50)`

`=1/50 + 1/50 = 1/25`

f = 25 cm

Power of lens, `p = 100/f ("cm")D`

= `100/25D`

= 4D
