diagrams: (a) An object laced within the focus of a convex lens produces a virtual and enlarged
image. (b) A concave lens produces a virtual and diminished image independent of the location

Ans. (a) For a convex lens, f >> 0 and for an object on left, u < 0. When the object is placed within
the focus of a convex lens,

0 < | u | < f or

Q. 20. (a) The far point of a myopic person is 80 cm in front of the eye. What is the power of the
lens required to enable him to see very distant objects clearly?
(b) In what way does the corrective lens help the person above? Does the lens magnify very
distant object? Explain carefully.
(c) The person above prefers to remove his spectacles while reading a book. Explain why.
Solution: (a) The remedial lens should make the objects at infinity appear at the far point.
For objects at infinity,
u=
Far point distance of the defective eye,
V = 80 cm
By thin lens formula,
Or f= 80 cm = 0.80 m

Power,
(b) No, the concave lens does not magnify the very distant objects. In fact, it reduces the size
of the object (image distance is less than object distance), but the angle subtended by the
distant object at the eye is the same as the angle subtended by the image (on the far point) at the
eye. The eye is able to see distant objects not because the corrective lens magnifies the object,
but because it brings the object (i.e., it produces virtual image of the object) at the far point of
the eye which then can be focused by the eye-lens on the retina.
(c) The myopic person may have a normal near point i.e., about 25 cm (or even less). In order
to read a book with his spectacles (for distant vision), he msut keep the book at a greater distance
than 25 cm so that the image of the book by the concave lens is produced not closer than
25 cm. The angular distance is evidently less than the angular size when the book is placed at 25
cm and no spectacles are used. Hence, the person prefers to remove his spectacles while reading.

Q. 21. A man with normal near point (25 cm) reads a book with small print using a magnifying glass: a
thin convex lens of focal length 5 cm.
(i) What is the closest and the farthest distance at which he can read the book when viewing

As

Q. 22. A figure divided into squires each of size 1 mm 2 is being viewed at a distance of 9 cm through a
magnifying glass (a converging lens of focal length 10 cm) held close to the eye.
(i) What is the magnification (image size/object size) produced by the lens? How much is
the area of each square in the virtual image?
(ii) What is the angular imagination (magnifying power) of the lens?
(iii) Is the magnification in (i) equal to the magnifying power in (ii)? Explain.
Solution :
(i) Here, area of each square (or object)
= 1 mm2
U = − 9 cm, f = + 10 cm

As
Or v = −90 cm
Magnitude of magnification,

Area of each square in the virtual image


= (10)2 × 1 = 100 mm2 = 1 cm2.
(ii) Magnifying power,

2.8
(iii) No. Magnification of an image by a lens and angular magnification (or magnifying power) of
an optical instrument are two separate things. The latter is the ratio of the angular size of the
object (which is equal to the angular size of the image even if the image is magnified) to
the angular size of the object if placed at the near point (25 cm). Thus magnification magnitude

is and magnifying power is . Only when the image is located at the near point
= 25 cm, the two quantities are equal.
Q. 23. (i) Draw a labeled ray diagram of a compound microscope, showing the formation of
image at the near point of the eye.
(ii) A compound microscope uses on objective lens of focal length 4 cm and eye lens of focal
length 10 cm. An object is placed at 6 cm from the objective lens.
(a) Calculate magnifying power of the compound microscope, if the final image is formed at
the near point.
(b) Calculate the length of the compound microscope also.
Q. 24. A beam of light converges to a point P. A lens is placed in the path of the convergent beam 12 cm
from P. At what point does the beam converge if the lens is (a) a convex lens of focal length 20
cm, (b) a concave lens of focal length 16 cm?

Q. 25. Use the mirror equation to deduce that:


(a) an object placed between f and 2 f of a concave mirror produces a real image beyond 2 f.
(b) a convex mirror always produces a virtual image independent of the location of the object.
(c) the virtual image produced by a convex mirror is always diminished in size and is
located between the focus and the pole.
(d) an object placed between the pole and focus of a concave mirror produces a virtual and
enlarged image.

Ans. (a) From mirror formula,


Now for a concave mirror, f < 0 and for an object on the left, u < 0

or or

or or
This implies that v < 0 so that image if formed on left. Also the above inequality implies
2f>v
or [ 2 f and v are negative]
i.e., the real image is formed beyond 2f.
(b) For a convex mirror, f > 0 and for an object on left, u < 0. From mirror formula,

This implies that or v > 0


This shows that whatever be the value of u, a convex mirror forms a virtual image on the right.
(c) For convex mirror, f > 0 and for an object on the left u < 0, so mirror formula,

Implies that
or v<f
This shows that the image is located between the pole and the focus of the mirror.
(d) From mirror formula,

For a concave mirror, f < 0 and for an object located between the pole and focus of a concave mirror,

f<u<0 or
i.e., a virtual image is formed on the right.

Also or
i.e., image is enlarged.
Q. 26. A myopic person has been using spectacles of power −1.0 dioptre for distant vision. During old
age he also needs to use separate reading glass of power + 2.0 dioptres. Explain what may have
happened.
Ans. Here, P = −1.0 dioptre

cm
Thus, the far point of the person is 100 cm, on the other hand, his near point may have been normal
(about 25 cm).
The objects at infinity produce virtual images at 100 cm (using spectacles).
To see closer objects, i.e., those which are (or whose images using the spectacles are) between 100 cm
and 25 cm, the person uses the ability of accommodation of his eye lens. This ability usually gets
partially lost in old age (presbyopia). The near point of the person recedes to 50 cm.
So to view the objects at 25 cm clearly, we have
u = −25 cm, v = −50 cm

or f = 50 cm, Hence, 2 dioptres


Thus the person needs a converging lens of power +2 dioptres.
Q. 27. A man with normal near point (25 cm) reads a book with small print using a magnifying glass: a
thin convex lens of focal length 5 cm.
(i) What is the closest and the farthest distance at which he can read the book when viewing
through the magnifying glass?
(ii) What is the maximum and the minimum angular magnification (magnifying power)
possible using the above simple microscope?

Solution (i) For the closest distance:


V= 25 cm, f = 5 cm, u=?

As

or cm.
This is the closest distance at which the man can read the book.
For the farthest image:
f = 5 cm, u = ?

or u = 5 cm
This is the farthest distance at which the man can read the book.

Q. 31. Which two main considerations are kept in mind while designing the ‘objective’ of an
astronomical telescope? Obtain an expression for the angular magnifying power and the length
of the tube of an astronomical telescope in its ‘normal adjustment’ position.
Ans. Two main consideration with an astronomical telescope are :
(i) its light gathering power and (ii) its resolving power.
The light gathering power depends on the area of the objective with larger diameters, fainter
objects can be observed. The resolving power, or the ability to observe two objects distinctly,
which are very nearly in the same direction, also depends on the diameter of the objective.

normal adjustment = .

lens of focal length 10 cm be formed at the same point O. The radius of curvature of the mirror
is 20cm. Will the image be inverted or erect?

L M
Ans. (i) For derivation of mirror formula, refer answer to Q. 10 on page 520.

The thin lens formula is

(ii) The final image will be formed at the same point O if the concave mirror reverses the path of
light incident on it. For this the image formed by the lens must be located at the centre of
curvature of mirror M. Then the light will fall normally on and will retrace its path after
reflection.
For refraction through the convex lens,

u = −15 cm, f = +10 cm or v = 30 cm


For concave mirror, R = 20 cm
Hence d = v + R = 30 + 20 = 50 cm
The final image formed at O will be an inverted image.
OR
(i) Using the relation for refraction at a single spherical refracting surface, derive the lens
maker’s formula.

Ans. (ii) For refraction through the convex lens, f = +10 cm, v = +15 cm

or u = −30 cm i.e., LO = 30 cm
The image formed first by reflection from the mirror and then by refraction through the lens will be
located at only if the image formed by reflection from the mirror is formed at O i.e., if distance
