Q23.An object is at a distance of 20 m from a convex lens of focal length 0.3 m. The lens forms an image of the object. If the object moves away from the lens at a speed of 5 m/s the speed and direction of the image will be (1) 2.26 × 10−3 m/s away from the lens (2) 0.92 × 10−3 m/s away from the lens (3) 3.22 × 10−3 m/s towards the lens (4) 1.16 × 10−3 m/s towards the lens

What This Question Tests

This question combines the lens formula with differential calculus to determine the speed and direction of the image formed by a convex lens when the object is moving.

Concepts Tested

Lens formulaDifferentiation for image velocity

Formulas Used

1/f = 1/v - 1/u

dv/dt = (v/u)^2 (du/dt)
