a convex lens is placed betwn an object and d screen wich r a fix d distnce apart for one position of d elns the magnification of d image is m1 wich is obtaind on d screen , when d lens is moved by a idstnce d the magnification of d image is m2 obtained on d same screen . d focal lenght of d lens is ?

(m2>m1)

see i will give a hint..
let x be the total separation between the object and the screen
let the positions of the lens be "a" from the object..
the object is first then lens then the screen..

so 1/v-1/u=1/f

now v=x-a
u=-a

substitute to get a quadratic in a

so we know that the difference in the roots of the quadratic is "d"

we also know V/U bcos we know the magnifications..

so u know enuf.. i hope it helps..

now v=x-a
u=-a

we get a quadratic in a

a2-ax+xf=0
a=(x±D)/2 where D2=x2-4xf

magnification is m=v/u = 1-x/a

now m2>m1 => a2>a1

so m2-m1=(1-x/a2)-(1-x/a1) (find this )

d=difference of roots = D

how it is easy to solve..

just 1 step remains..
