A diminished image of an object is to be obtained on a screen 1.0 m away from it. This can be achieved by approximately placing

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Image can be formed on the screen if it is real. Real image of reduced size can be formed by a concave mirror or a convex lens

Let u=2f+x, then

1u+1v=1f

12f+x+1v=1f

1v=1f-12f+x=f+xf(2f+x)

v=f(2f+x)f+x

It is given thatu+v=1.0 m

2f+x+f(2f+x)f+x=2f+x1+ff+x<1.0m

Or 2f+x2f+x<1.0m

Or 2f+x2<(f+x)

This will be true only whenf<0.25 m
