A convex lens of focal length ' $f$ ' $m$ forms a real, inverted image twice in size of the object. The object distance from the lens in metre is
- 0.5 f
- 0.66 f
- f
- 1.5 f
Solution
$\begin{aligned}
& \text { Focal length }=\mathrm{f} \\
& \mathrm{~m}=\frac{\mathrm{v}}{\mathrm{u}}=\frac{\mathrm{h}^{\prime}}{\mathrm{h}}=-2 ...(given)\\
\therefore \quad & \mathrm{v}=-2 \mathrm{u}
\end{aligned}$
From lens formula,
$\begin{aligned} & \frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{f} \\ & \frac{1}{-2 u}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{f} \\ & \frac{u+2 u}{2 u^2}=\frac{1}{f} \\ & \frac{3 u}{2 u^2}=\frac{1}{f} \\ & \frac{1.5}{u}=\frac{1}{f} \\ & \therefore \quad u=1.5 \mathrm{f}\end{aligned}$
