A convex lens of focal length 20 cm produces images of the same magnification 2 when an object is kept at two distances x₁ and x₂ (x₁ > x₂) from the lens. The ratio of x₁ and x₂ is?
4:3
5:3
2:1
3:1
Solution:
Correct option is D. 3:1 Magnification is 2 If image is real, x₁ = 3f/2 If image is virtual, x₂ = f/2 x₁/x₂ = 3:1
