Q.
A convex lens is placed between object and a screen. The size of object is 3 cm and an image of height 9 cm is obtained on the screen. When the lens is displaced to a new position, what will be the size of image on the screen?
A) 2 cm
B) 6 cm
C) 4 cm
D) 1 cm
Explanation
(d) Form displacement method size of object, $O = \ \sqrt{I_{1}I_{2}}$
Here, $O$ = 3 cm, $I_{1}$ = 9 cm
$\therefore$ 3 = $\sqrt{9I_{2}}$
Or $I_{2}$ = 1 cm
