The distance between an object and its real image in a convex lens is 40cm. If the magnification of the image is 3, calculate the focal length of the lens
6.5 cm
7.5 cm
8.5 cm
4.5 cm
Correct answer is B
u + v = 40
vu = 3
v = 3u
u + 3u = 40
4u = 40
u = 10cm
v = 3u = 30cm
f = uvu+v=10(30)10+30=30040
= 7.5 cm
