उत्तर

\[\text{The focal length of original equiconvex lens is f } . \]

\[\text { Let the focal length of each part after cutting be F } . \]

\[\text { Here }, \]

\[\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{F} + \frac{1}{F}\]

\[ \Rightarrow \frac{1}{f} = \frac{2}{F}\]

\[ \Rightarrow f = \frac{F}{2}\]

\[ \Rightarrow F = 2f\]

\[\text { Power of each part will be given by }\]

\[P = \frac{1}{F}\]

\[ \Rightarrow P = \frac{1}{2f}\]

You have learnt that plane and convex mirrors produce virtual images of objects. Can they produce real images under some circumstances? Explain.


A screen is placed 90 cm from an object. The image of the object on the screen is formed by a convex lens at two different locations separated by 20 cm. Determine the focal length of the lens.


  1. Determine the ‘effective focal length’ of the combination of the two lenses, if they are placed 8.0 cm apart with their principal axes coincident. Does the answer depend on which side of the combination a beam of parallel light is incident? Is the notion of the effective focal length of this system useful at all?
  2. An object 1.5 cm in size is placed on the side of the convex lens in the arrangement (a) above. The distance between the object and the convex lens is 40 cm. Determine the magnification produced by the two-lens system and the size of the image.

Figure shows an equiconvex lens (of refractive index 1.50) in contact with a liquid layer on top of a plane mirror. A small needle with its tip on the principal axis is moved along the axis until its inverted image is found at the position of the needle. The distance of the needle from the lens is measured to be 45.0 cm. The liquid is removed and the experiment is repeated. The new distance is measured to be 30.0 cm. What is the refractive index of the liquid?

An object approaches a convergent lens from the left of the lens with a uniform speed 5 m/s and stops at the focus. The image ______.


An unsymmetrical double convex thin lens forms the image of a point object on its axis. Will the position of the image change if the lens is reversed?


In many experimental set-ups the source and screen are fixed at a distance say D and the lens is movable. Show that there are two positions for the lens for which an image is formed on the screen. Find the distance between these points and the ratio of the image sizes for these two points.
