MCQ
In displacement method, there are two position of a lens for which we get clear image. First position of the lens is at $40 \,cm$ from object and second is at $80 \,cm$, the focal length of lens is ......... $cm$
  • A
    $40$
  • B
    $\frac{40}{3}$
  • C
    $80$
  • $\frac{80}{3}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$\frac{80}{3}$
d
(d)

Displacement method is based on principle of reversibility. The image distance for 1st position of lens will be same as object position with IInd position of lens.

$u=-40 \,cm$

$V=+80 \,cm$

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{80}-\frac{1}{-40}$

$f=\frac{80}{3} \,cm$
