Ratio of size of the images in two positions
\(\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}}=\frac{3}{2}\)
Distance of object from the screen, \(D=?\)
Applying formula,
\({\frac{{{I_1}}}{{{I_2}}} = \frac{{{{(D + d)}^2}}}{{{{(D - d)}^2}}}}\)
\({ \Rightarrow \,\,\frac{3}{2} = \frac{{{{(D + 10)}^2}}}{{{{(D - 10)}^2}}}}\)
\({ \Rightarrow \quad \frac{3}{2} = \frac{{{D^2} + 100 + 20D}}{{{D^2} + 100 - 20D}}}\)
\(\Rightarrow 3 D^{2}+300-60 D=2 D^{2}+200+40 D\)
\(\Rightarrow \quad D^{2}-100 D+100=0\)
On solving, we get \(D=99\, \mathrm{cm}\)
Hence the distance between the screen and the object is \(99\, \mathrm{cm} .\)
