Monjur Alahi

A screen is placed a distance 40 cm away from an illuminated object. A converging lens is placed between the source and the screen and it is attempted to form the image of the source on the screen. If no position could be found, the focal length of the lens
(a) must be less than 10 cm
(b) must be greater than 20 cm
(c) must not be greater than 20 cm
(d) must not be less than 10 cm.

A doctor has prescribed a corrective lens of power + 1.5 D. Find the focal length of the lens. Is the prescribed lens diverging or converging?

Given P=+ 1.5D As P=1/f (in metre) , Focal length, f =1/P=1/1.5=0.667m=66.7cm As power of prescribed lens is positive, the lens is converging (or convex) lens.

Give the SI unit of power of lens. State whether the power of a converging lens is positive or negative.

The SI unit of power of a lens is dioptre. The power of a converging lens is positive as f is +ve.

An object is placed 80 cm from a converging lens of focal lenEh 25 cm. What is the nature of the image?

The image is real, inverted and diminished as the object is placed beyond 2F.

A student focuses the images of a well illuminated distant object on a screen using a convex lens.

(i) Lens towards the screen/screen away from the lens (Note: One mark to be awarded for any other answer) (ii) Increase. (iii) No image on the screen.

A point source of light is placed at a distance, of 2 f from a converging lens of focal length 1 The intensity on the othe

The correct answer is (c) 2 f EXPLANATION:  The intensity of the light on the other side is maximum where the image of the point source is formed.  Here u = -2f, f...

A parallel beam of light is incident on a converging lens parallel to its principal axis. As one moves away

(d) first increases then decreases. EXPLANATION:  The parallel beam of light converges at the focus on the other side and then diverges. Hence till the person moves to the focus the intensity...

A converging lens is kept co-axially in contact with a diverging lens – both the lenses being of equal focal lengths.

Let focal length of converging and diverging lenses be + f and - f respectively. Power of converging len P1 = 1/f, Power of diverging lens P2 = - 1/f ∴ Power of combination P...
