An object is at distance of 20m from a convex lens of focal length 0.3m. The lens forms an image of the object moves away from the lens at a speed of 5m/s, the speed and direction of the image will be:

  • Option 1) 3.22 X 10-3 m/s towards the lens 
  • Option 2) 1.16 X 10-3 m/s towards the lens

Relation between object and image velocity if object is moving along principal axis -

\underset{V_{im}}{\rightarrow} = \frac{-v^{2}}{u^{2}} \underset{V_{om}}{\rightarrow}

\underset{V_{im}}{\rightarrow} = \underset{V_{i}}{\rightarrow} - \underset{V_{m}}{\rightarrow}

\underset{V_{om}}{\rightarrow} = \underset{V_{o}}{\rightarrow} - \underset{V_{m}}{\rightarrow}
 

 

 

 

 

- wherein

\underset{V_{o}}{\rightarrow} = velocity of object

\underset{V_{i}}{\rightarrow} = velocity of image

\underset{V_{m}}{\rightarrow} = velocity of mirror

\underset{V_{om}}{\rightarrow} = velocity of object w.r.t. mirror

\underset{V_{im}}{\rightarrow} = velocity of image w.r.t. mirror

From lens formula 

\frac{1}{V}=\frac{1}{0.3}-\frac{1}{20}

\Rightarrow V=\frac{60}{197}

m=\frac{V}{u}=\frac{\frac{60}{197}}{20}

Velocity of image w.r.to lens

V_{I}=m^{2}V_{o}

and directions is same as that of object

V_{I}= (\frac{\frac{60}{197}}{20})^{2}\: \: 5

=1.16\times 10^{-3}m/s towards the lens.

 

 


Option 1)

3.22 X 10-3 m/s towards the lens

Option 2)

1.16 \times 10^{-3}m/s towards the lens

Option 3)

 

0.92 \times 10^{-3}m/s away from the lens

Option 4)

 

2.26 \times 10^{-3}m/s away from the lens
