Q.

A thin converging lens of focal length f = 1.5 m is placed along y-axis such that its optical centre coincides with the origin. A small light source S is placed at (–2.0 m, 0.1 m). A plane mirror inclined at an angle θ is placed such that y co-ordinate of final image is 0.3m. (tanθ=0.3).

Detailed Solution

For the lens, u = –2.0 m, f = +1.5 m

1v=12.0+11.5v = 6.0m

m=6.02.0=3.0

Question Image

hI=mho=-3×0.1=-0.3 m

Therefore, y - coordinate of image formed by lens is  –0.3 m

0.3NP=tanθ=0.3

NP=MP=1.0m 

d=6.01.0=5.0m

and, x-coordinate of final image I2 is, x=d1.0=4.0m
