Question

An upright object is placed at a distance of 40 c m in front of a convergent lens of focal length 20 c m . A convergent mirror of focal length 10 c m is placed at a distance of 60 c m on the other side of the lens. The position and size of the final image will be:, 40 c m from the convergent lens, twice the size of the object, 20 c m from the convergent mirror, twice the size of the object, 40 c m from the convergent lens, same size of the object, 20 c m from the convergent mirror, same size of the object

First refraction, u = - 40 c m ; f = + 20 c m From lens formula, 1 v - 1 u = 1 f 1 v - 1 - 40 = 1 20 ⇒ 1 v = 1 20 - 1 40 v = + 40 c m m 1 = - 1 First reflection, u = - 20 c m ; f = - 10 c m From mirror formula, 1 v + 1 u = 1 f 1 v - 1 20 = 1 - 10 1 v = 1 - 10 + 1 20 ⇒ v = - 20 c m m 2 = - 1 Second refraction, u = - 40 c m , f = + 20 c m From lens formula, 1 v - 1 - 40 = 1 20 ⇒ v = + 40 c m m 3 = - 1 m t o t a l = m 1 × m 2 × m 3 = - 1 Finally, image will be at distance 40 c m from lens and is of same size as object.
