To find:
Focal length of the lens, f=?
\(\frac { 1 }{ f } =\frac { 1 }{ v } -\frac { 1 }{ u } \)
\(\frac { 1 }{ f } =\frac { -1 }{ 10 } -\left( \frac { 1 }{ -50 } \right) \)
\(\frac { 1 }{ f } =\frac { -1 }{ 10 } +\frac { 1 }{ 50 } \)
\(\frac { 1 }{ f } =\frac { -50+10 }{ 500 } \)
\(\frac { 1 }{ f } =\frac { -40 }{ 500 } \)
f=\(\frac { -500 }{ 40 } \)
∴ f =-12.5 cm
It is a diverging. ∵ it is concave lens.
23.
Object distance, u =25 cm

To find: Power of the lens, P = ?
\(\frac { 1 }{ u } -\frac { 1 }{ v } =\frac { 1 }{ f } \)
Near point of hypermetropia eye
\(\frac { 1 }{ f } =\frac { 1 }{ -100 } -\frac { 1 }{ (-25) } \)
=\(-\frac { 1 }{ 100 } +\frac { 1 }{ 25 } \)
\(\frac { 1 }{ f } =\frac { (-1+4) }{ 100 } \)

Power of the lens, P \(\frac { 1 }{ f } =\frac { 1 }{ 0.9 } \) =1.11 D
Concave lens of 1.11D is used to see distance object.
26.

\(\frac { 1 }{ f } =\frac { 1 }{ u } -\frac { 1 }{ v } \)
\(\frac { 1 }{ v } =\frac { 1 }{ f } +\frac { 1 }{ u } =-\frac { 1 }{ 10 } -\frac { 1 }{ 20 } \)
\(\frac { 1 }{ v } =\frac { -3 }{ 20 } \)
∴ v = -6.7 cm
m = \(\frac { v }{ u } =\frac { -20/3 }{ -20 } =\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \)
Height of the image
hi = h0 x m = 6 x \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \) = 2 cm
Image is virtual, at a distance 6.7 cm from lens on the same side as the object and has a height of 2 cm.

\(\frac { 1 }{ v } =\frac { 1 }{ f } +\frac { 1 }{ u } =\frac { 1 }{ 10 } +\frac { 1 }{ -15 } \)
\(\frac { 1 }{ v } =\frac { 3-2 }{ 30 } =\frac { 1 }{ 30 } \)
\(\frac { 1 }{ v } =\frac { 1 }{ 30 } \)
∴ v=30 cm [image distance]
Magnification, m=\(\frac { v }{ u } =\frac { 30 }{ -15 } \) =-2
∴ Image is real, inverted, 30 cm from lens on the opposite side of the object & magnified 2 times.

(or) \(\frac { 1 }{ v } =\frac { 1 }{ 60 } \) ⇒ = 60 cm
Magnification =\(=\frac{\text { height of the image size }}{\text { height of the object }}\)
=\(\frac { { h }_{ 2 } }{ { h }_{ 1 } } \)
m=\(\frac { { h }_{ 1 } }{ { h }_{ 0 } } \Rightarrow \frac { v }{ u } =\frac { 60 }{ -30 } \)=-2
∴ h2=h1 x (-2) =5 x (-2) =-10 cm
(i) The image is real, inverted and magnified.
