Spherical Surfaces & Thin Lenses

A convex lens of focal length 'F' produces a real image 'n' times the size of the object. The image distance is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. Real image: m=−nm = -n, so u=−vnu = -\frac{v}{n}.
  2. 1v+nv=1F⇒v=F(n+1)\frac{1}{v} + \frac{n}{v} = \frac{1}{F} \Rightarrow v = F(n + 1)
  3. So the answer is (a) F(n + 1).
