$A$ beam of light converges at a point $P$. Now a lens is placed in the path of the convergent beam $12 \, cm$ from $P$. At what point does the beam converge if the lens is a concave lens of focal length $16 \, cm$ (in $, cm$)?

  • A
    $72$
  • B
    $-72$
  • C
    $48$
  • D

$A$ point source of light is placed on the principal axis between $F$ and $2F$ of a concave lens. On the other side,very far away,a screen is placed perpendicular to the principal axis. As the screen is brought closer towards the lens,

Assertion : Position of image approaches focus of a lens,only when object approaches infinity.
Reason : Paraxial rays incident parallel to principal axis intersect at the focus after refraction from lens.

The image of a small electric bulb fixed on the wall of a room is to be obtained on the opposite wall $3\, m$ away by means of a large convex lens. What is the maximum possible focal length of the lens required for the purpose?

The radii of curvature of a double convex lens are $4 \ cm$ and $8 \ cm$. If the refractive index of the material of the lens is $1.5$,the focal length of the lens is nearly (in $cm$)

In the figure,an air lens of radii of curvature $10 \ cm$ ($R_1 = 10 \ cm$,$R_2 = -10 \ cm$) is cut in a cylinder of glass $(\mu = 1.5)$. The focal length and the nature of the lens is:
