उत्तर
(a) The defect of the vision is hypermetropia
Hypermetropia is caused due to:
(i) reduction in the curvature of the lens
(ii) a decrease in the size of the eyeball
(b) Ray diagram:
(c) The corrective lens used for this defect is a convex lens.
Given that the near point of the eye is at 50 cm. The convex lens should form the image of the object placed at the distance 25 cm on the near point of the defective eye.
v = −50 cm
u = −25 cm
`1/"f" = 1/"v"-1/"u"`
⇒ `1/"f"=1/((-50))-1/((-25))=1/50`
Power,`"P"=100/50=+2"D"`
(d) Ray diagram showing the correction of the defect:
