Question

The focal length of a convex lens is 10 cm. The magnifying powers when it is used as a magnifying glass to form the image at (i) near point and (ii) far point are :
  1. 2.5, 3.5
  2. 4.5, 3.5
  3. 3.5, 4.5
  4. 3.5, 2.5

A
3.5, 4.5
B
4.5, 3.5
C
3.5, 2.5
D
2.5, 3.5
Solution
Verified by Toppr

For the near point, magnification, m1=1+Df

For the far point, m2=Df

Thus, putting D=25 and f=10

We get, m1=3.5 and m2=2.5
