Sunlight of intensity 1.3 kW m-2 is incident normally on a thin convex lens of focal length 20 cm . Ignore the energy loss of light due to the lens and assume that the lens aperture size is much smaller than its focal length. The average intensity of light, in kW m-2 , at a distance 22 cm from the lens on the other side is __________.

Solution


rR=220=110
   Ratio of area =1100
Let energy incident on lens be E
   Given EA=1.3
E=A×1.30
Also aA=1100
   Average intensity of light at 22 cm=Ea=A×1.3a=100×1.3=130k W/m2 `
