The focal length of a convex lens is \(f\). An object is placed at a distance \(x\) from its first focal point. The ratio of the size of the real image to that of the object is

  1. A \(\frac{f}{x^2}\)
  2. B \(\frac{x^2}{f}\)
  3. C \(\frac{f}{x}\)
  4. D \(\frac{x}{f}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{f}{x}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given that, focal length of convex lens \(=f\) Distance of object from lst focus point \(=x\) Now, object distance, \(u=-(f+x)\) We know that, ratio of size of real image to that of object = magnification which is given by \(m=\frac{v}{u}=\frac{f}{f+u}\)…
