(A) An object is kept at a distance of from a lens of power : (i) Identify the type of lens.(ii) Calculate its focal length and distance of the image formed.OR(B) Define the following terms in the context of a diverging lens: (i) Principal focus.(ii) Focal length.Draw a labelled ray diagram to illustrate your answer.
Solution:
(A) (i) The given lens is a convex lens as power of convex lens is positive.(ii)Its focal length is .Using the relation OR OR(B) (i) Principal focus: Several rays of light parallel to the principal axis are falling on a concave lens. These rays, after refraction from the lens, are appearing to diverge from a point on the principal axis. This point on the principal axis is called the principal focus of the concave lens.(ii) Focal length: The distance of the principal focus from the optical centre of a lens is called its focal length. The letter is used to represent the focal length.
