Q4 of 52 Page 431

Mark the correct options.

A diverging lens ray diagram is shown below.



When the far point ,x shifts ahead, then the focal length f also shifts.


From Len’s formula-






Since, the focal length becomes negative, hence diverging lens must be used.


Also, power is reciprocal of focal length



Hence, the power get reduced while the point x goes ahead
