4cm high object is placed at a distance of 12cm from a converging lens of focal length of 8cm. Determine the position, size and type of the image.​

Answer»

Required ANSWER :-

  • Height of object = 4cm

  • distance from mirror (u) = 12cm

  • Focal length = 8cm

_____________________________

To FIND :-

___________________________________________

\frac{1}{f}  =  \frac{1}{u}  +  \frac{1}{v}  \\  \\  \frac{1}{8}  =  \frac{1}{12}  +  \frac{1}{v}  \\  \\  \frac{1}{v}  =  \frac{1}{ - 24}  -  \frac{1}{ - 12}  \\  \\ v = 24cm

m =  -  \frac{v}{u}   \\  \\ m =  -  \frac{ - 24}{ - 3}  \\  \\ m = 8cm

Hence Image formed is virtual and erect and position is behind the mirror.
