52. A lens forms a real image of an object. The distance of the object to the lens is u cm and the
distance of the image from the lens is v cm. The given graph shows the variation of v with u.
(i) What is the nature of the lens?
(ii) Using this graph, find the
(iii) focal length of this lens. (Ans. f= + 10 cm)
53. A needle placed 45 cm from a lens forms an image on a screen placed 90cm on the other
side of the lens. Identify the type of the lens and determine its focal length. What is the
size of image if the size of the needle is 5.0 cm? [30cm,-10cm]
54. Converging light rays are falling on a convex lens as shown in Fig.. if the focal length of
the lens is 30 cm, then find the position of the image. (Ans. v = + 7.5 cm)
55. A needle 10 cm long is placed along the axis of a convex lens of focal length 10 cm such
that the middle point of the needle is at a distance of 20 cm from the lens. Find the length
of the image of the needle.
56. At what distance should an object be placed from a convex lens of focal length 15 cm to
obtain an image three times the size of the object?
[20cm for real image ,10cm for virtual image]
57. An object is placed at a distance of 1.5 m from a screen and a convex lens is interposed
between them. The magnification produced is 4. What is the focal length of the lens?
(Ans. 0.24 m)

58. Find the position of the image formed by the lens shown in the Fig. Another lens is placed
in contact with this lens to shift the image further away from the lens. What is the nature
of the second lens? [15 cm, concave lens]
59. The following data was recorded for values of object distance and the corresponding val-
ues of image distance in the experiment on study of real image formation by a convex lens
of power + 5 D. One of these observation is incorrect. Identify this observation and give
reason for your choice.
Sr. No. Object distance (cm) Image distance (cm)
1. 25 97
2. 30 61
3. 35 37
4. 45 35
5. 50 32
6. 55 30
60. A converging beam of light forms a sharp image on a screen. A lens is placed in the path
of the beam at 10 cm from the screen. It is found that the screen has to be moved 8cm
further away from the lens to obtain a sharp image. Find the focal length and nature of the
lens. (Ans. - 22.5 cm, concave)
61. A convergent lens of power 8 D is combined with a divergent lens of power- 10 D. Calcu-
late focal length of the combination. (Ans. - 0.5 m)
62. In the following ray diagram are given the positions of an object 0, image I and two lenses
L1 and L2. The focal length of L1 is also given. Find the focal length of L2. (Ans. f = - 15 cm)
63. From the ray diagram shown below, calculate the focal length of the concave lens.
(Ans. f = - 20 cm)
64. A convex lens of focal length 10 cm is placed coaxially 5cm away from a concave lens of
focal length 10cm. If an object is placed 30 cm in front of the convex lens, find the position
of the final image formed by the combined system. [at infinity]

65. In the diagram shown below, rays are coming from infinity and after passing through
both the lenses meet on a screen placed at a distance of 30 cm from the concave lens.
Calculate the focal length of the concave lens. (Ans. 15 cm)
66. In the following ray- diagram are shown the positions of the object 0, image I, two lenses
and a plane mirror. The focal length of one of the lenses is also given. Calculate the focal
length of the other lens. (Ans. 20 cm)
67. Fig. shows on equiconvex lens (of refractive index 1.50) in con-
tact with a liquid layer on top of a plane mirror. A small needle
with its tip on the principal axis is moved along the axis until its
inverted image is found at the position of the needle. The dis-
tance of the needle from the lens is measured to be 45.0 cm. The
liquid is removed and the experiment is repeated. The new dis-
tance is measured to be 30.0 cm. What is the refractive index of
the liquid? [1.33]
68. Find the position of the image formed by the lens combination given in Fig. below: [30cm]
69. An equiconvex lens of focal length 15 cm is cut into two equal halves along its length.
What is the focal length of each half ? (Ans. 30 cm)
70. The following data was recorded for values of object distance and the corresponding val-
ues of image distance in the experiment on study of real image formation by a convex lens
of power +5D. One of these observations is incorrect. Identify this observation and give
reason for your choice: [Ans. 20 cm, both are the between f and 2f].

S. No. 1 2 3 4 5 6
Object distance (cm) 25 30 35 45 50 55
Image distance (cm) 97 61 37 35 32 30
71. Find the position of the image formed of an object ‘O’ by the lens combination given in the
figure. [Ans. at a distance 30 cm to the right of third lens]
72. You are given three lenses L1, L2 and L3 each of focal length 20 cm. An object is kept at 40
cm in front of L1, as shown. The final real image is formed at the focus ‘I’ of L3. Find the
separations between L1, L2 and L3.
[Ans. L1 which lies 20 cm of lens L2 i.e., focus of lens L2, the distance between L1 and L2
= 40 + 20 = 60 cm, the distance between L2 and L3 can have any value]
