Optics 7 Question 2

2. An upright object is placed at a distance of 40cm in front of a convergent lens of focal length 20cm. A convergent mirror of focal length 10cm is placed at a distance of 60cm on the other side of the lens. The position and size of the final image will be

(2019 Main, 8 April I)

(a) 20cm from the convergent mirror, same size as the object

(b) 40cm from the convergent mirror, same size as the object

(c) 40cm from the convergent lens, twice the size of the object

(d) 20cm from the convergent mirror,twice size of the object

Solution:

  1. In given system of lens and mirror, position of object O in front of lens is at a distance 2f.

i.e. u=2f=40cm

So, image (I1) formed is real, inverted and at a distance, v=2f=2×20=40cm, (behind lens) magnification, m1=vu=4040=1

Thus, size of image is same as that of object.

This image (I1) acts like a real object for mirror.

As object distance for mirror is u=C=2f=20cm where, C= centre of curvature.

So, image (I2) formed by mirror is at 2f.

For mirror v=2f=2(10)=20cm

Magnification, m2=vu=(20)(20)=1

Thus, image size is same as that of object.

The image I2 formed by the mirror will act like an object for lens.

As the object is at 2f distance from lens, so image (I3) will be formed at a distance 2f or 40cm. Thus, magnification,

m3=vu=4040=1

So, final magnification, m=m1×m2×m3=1

Hence, final image (I3) is real, inverted of same size as that of object and coinciding with object.
