[CPMT 2002]

Options:

A) 1.2 cm

B) 3.2 cm

C) 2.8 cm

D) 1.6 cm

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

v = 1 cm, R = 2 cm By using $ \frac{{\mu _{2}}}{v}-\frac{{\mu _{1}}}{u}=\frac{{\mu _{2}}-{\mu _{1}}}{R} $

$ \frac{1}{-1}-\frac{1.5}{u}=\frac{1-1.5}{-2} $

$ \Rightarrow u=-1.2cm $
