Q135 / 155 · WBJEE 2017 · Physics
A point object is held above a thin equiconvex lens at its focus. The focal length is $0.1 \mathrm{m}$ and the lens rests on a horizontal thin plane mirror. The final image will be formed at
- Ainfinite distance above the lens
- Correct answerB$0.1 \mathrm{m}$ above the center of the lens
- Cinfinite distance below the lens
- D$0.1 \mathrm{m}$ below the center of the lens
Solution
As the lens is placed on a horizontal thin plane mirror.
So due to role of plane mirror the image will be formed at the same point $O$ above $0.1 \mathrm{m}$ distance above the center of the lens.
So due to role of plane mirror the image will be formed at the same point $O$ above $0.1 \mathrm{m}$ distance above the center of the lens.Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
