Question
The distance between object and its $3$ times magnified virtual image as produced by a convex lens is $20 \mathrm{~cm}$. The focal length of the lens used is $\mathrm{cm}$

Answer

c
$\mathrm{v}=3 \mathrm{u}$

$\mathrm{v}-\mathrm{u}=20 \mathrm{~cm}$

$2 \mathrm{u}=20 \mathrm{~cm}$

$\mathrm{u}=10 \mathrm{~cm}$

$\frac{1}{(-30)}-\frac{1}{(-10)}=\frac{1}{\mathrm{f}}$

$\mathrm{f}=15 \mathrm{~cm}$
