A point object O is kept at a distance of 30 cm from a convex lens of power + 4D towards its left. It is observed that when a convex mirror is kept on right side at 50 cm from the lens, the image of object O formed by lens-mirror combination coincides with object itself. Calculate focal length of mirror

Answer»

Solution :Image formed by combination COINCIDES with the object itself. It implies that I is the centre of CURVATURE of convex MIRROR.

For lens
`1/f=1/v-1/u`
`1/25=1/v+1/30`
`v=150cm`
`MI=LI-LM=150-50=100 CM`
`f_m=(MI)/2=100/2=50 cm`
