NEET · Physics · STD 12 - 9. Ray optics and optical instruments
A point object is placed at a distance of \(60\, \mathrm{~cm}\) from a convex lens of focal length \(30 \,\mathrm{~cm}\). If a plane mirror were put perpendicular to the principal axis of the lens and at a distance of \(40\, \mathrm{~cm}\) from it, the final image would be formed at a distance of :

- A \(20\, \mathrm{~cm}\) from the lens, it would be a real image.
- B \(30 \,\mathrm{~cm}\) from the lens, it would be a real image.
- C \(30 \,\mathrm{~cm}\) from the plane mirror, it would be a virtual image.
- D \(20 \,\mathrm{~cm}\) from the plane mirror, it would be a virtual image.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
