Q20 of 284 Page 246

An erect image 2.0 cm high is formed 12 cm from a lens, the object being 0.5 cm high. Find the focal length of the lens.

Height of image = 2 cm

Image distance = 12 cm


Height of object= 0.5 cm


M = height of image/ height of object = 2/0.5 =- 4


M = v/u


-4 = 12/u


u =- 3 cm


using lens formula,



f = + 4.0 cm
