An object is placed at a distance of 12 cm from a converging lens on its principal axis and a virtual image of certain size is formed. Now the lens is moved 4 cm away from the object and a real image of the same size as that of the (previous) virtual image is formed. The focal length in cm of the lens is:

a
14
b
16
c
18
d
20

detailed solution

Correct option is A

1v−1u=1f ; uv=1+ufm=vu=fu+f;f−12+f=−f−16+f (∵m is same in both the cases ).f=14cm.
