Question

A magnifying glass is used to read the newspaper. As it is moved far away from the newspaper
  1. Text becomes blurred and magnification reduces
  2. Text becomes more focussed and magnification reduces
  3. Text becomes more focused and magnification increases
  4. Text becomes blurred and magnification increases

A
Text becomes more focussed and magnification reduces
B
Text becomes blurred and magnification increases
C
Text becomes blurred and magnification reduces
D
Text becomes more focused and magnification increases
Solution
Verified by Toppr

The correct option is A Text becomes blurred and magnification reduces
As the magnifying lens(convex lens) is moved far away from the eye, the image formed is real and inverted and is formed inside the human eye and hence it blurs. Since the object is far away from the mirror, the image formed is diminished and hence magnification reduces.

When an object is placed at a distance of 25 cm from a mirror, the magnification of the real image formed is m1. When the object is moved 15 cm away with respect to the earlier position along the principal axis, magnification becomes m2. If m1×m2=4, the focal length of the mirror in cm is P×10. Then, find the value of P
