1.5
1.66
1.33
SOLUTION
Solution : C

[MP PMT 1989]
20 cm
80 cm
30 cm
SOLUTION
Solution : A

[DPMT 1995]
SOLUTION
Solution : D
Question 5

[MP PMT 1994]
SOLUTION
Solution : C
Question 6
A hollow double concave lens is made of very thin transparent material. It can be filled with air or either of two liquids L1 and L2 having refractive indices n1 and n2 respectively (n2>n1>1). The lens will diverge a parallel beam of light if it is filled with
SOLUTION
Solution : D
1f=(n2n1−1)(1R1−1R2) Where n2 and n1 are the refractive indices of the material of the lens
and of the surroundings respectively. For a double concave lens,
(1R1−1R2) is always negative.
Hence f is negative only when n2>n1
Question 7
In order to obtain a real image of magnification 2 using a converging lens of focal length 20 cm, where should an object be placed
SOLUTION
Solution : D
For real image m=-2
∴ M = fu+f⇒−2=fu+f=20u+20⇒ u=-30 cm.
Question 8
An object is placed at a distance of f2 from a convex lens. The image will be
SOLUTION
Solution : A
1f=1v−1u (Given u=−f2 )
⇒1f=1v+(1f2)⇒1v=1f−2f
⇒1v=−1f and m=vu=ff2 = 2
So virtual at the focus and of double size.
Question 9
A concave lens forms the image of an object such that the distance between the object and image is 10 cm and the magnification proceed is 14. The focal length of the lens will be
SOLUTION
Solution : D
Concave lens forms the virtual image of a real object. So let
u = -4x and v = -x then 3x = 10 cm
or x=103 cm
∴ u=–403 cm
And v=−103 cm
Substituting in 1f=1v−1u
We get 1f=−310+340
or f=−409
or f = – 4.4 cm
Question 10
A point object is placed at a distance of 25 cm from a convex lens of focal length 20 cm. If a glass slab of thickness t and refractive index 1.5 is inserted between the lens and the object the image is formed at infinity. The thickness t is
SOLUTION
Solution : D
Image will be formed at infinity if object is placed at focus of the lens i.e., at 20 cm from thelens. Hence,
Shift = 25−20=(1−1μ)t
or 5=(1−11.5)t
or t=5×1.50.5=15 cm
Question 11
A convex lens of focal length f is placed somewhere in between an object and a screen. The distance between the object and the screen is x. If the numerical value of the magnification produced by the lens is m, then the focal length of the lens is
SOLUTION
Solution : A
v−u=−m;v+u=x⇒u=x1+m
1f=1v−1u⇒f=mx(m+1)2
Question 12
An object is placed at a distance of f2 from a convex lens. The image will be formed:
At −f, virtual and double its size.
At f, real and inverted.
At −2f, virtual and erect.
SOLUTION
Solution : A
Given u=−f2
1f=1v−1u
⇒1f=1v+(1f2)⇒1v=1f−2f
⇒1v=−1f
So v=−f i.e., the image will be formed at focus of the lens on the same side as that of the object.
Now magnification m=vu=−f−f2=+2
So the image formed will be virtual with magnification +2.
Question 13
A point object O is placed on the principal axis of a convex lens of focal length 20 cm at a distance of 40 cm to the left of it. The diameter of the lens is 10 cm. If the eye is placed 60 cm to the right of the lens at a distance h below the principal axis, then the maximum value of h to see the image will be
SOLUTION
Solution : C
In the following ray diagram Δ′s,ABC and CDE are symmetric
So, ABBC=DECD⇒540=h20⇒h=2.5cm
Question 14
The object distance u, the image distance v and the magnification m in a lens follow certain linear relations. These are
SOLUTION
Solution : A
For a lens 1f=1v−1u⇒1v=1u+1f....(i)
Also m=f−vf=1−vf⇒m=(−1f)v+1...(ii)
On comparing equations (i) and (ii) with y =mx +c.
It is clear that relationship between 1vvs1u and m vs v is linear.
Question 15
A thin lens has focal length f and aperture radius r. It forms an image of intensity I. Now the central part of the aperture upto r2 is blacked by an opaque material. The focal length and intensity of image will be
SOLUTION
Solution : B
There will be no change in focal length. f1=f But Intensity I∝A
But Intensity I∝A
I1I=r21r2=14∵r1=r2I1=I4
