NCERT Exercise 9.8 - Ray Optics and Optical Instruments
Question: A beam of light converges at a point P. Now a lens is placed in the path of the convergent beam 12cm from P. At what point does the beam converge if the lens is (a) a convex lens of focal length 20cm, and (b) a concave lens of focal length 16cm?
Answer: **NCERT answer:** Here the object is virtual and the image is real. u = +12 cm (object on right; virtual) (a) f = +20 cm. Image is real and at 7.5 cm from the lens on its right side. (b) f = –16 cm...
