(N/A) Convex lens:
$(i)$ Object position: At infinity $(u = \infty)$
Image position: At focus $(F)$
Image type: Real and inverted
Image size: Highly diminished
Magnification: $m \approx 0$ (negative)
(ii) Object position: Beyond $2F$ $(u > 2F)$
Image position: Between $F$ and $2F$
Image type: Real and inverted
Image size: Diminished
Magnification: $-1 < m < 0$
(iii) Object position: At $2F$ $(u = 2F)$
Image position: At $2F$
Image type: Real and inverted
Image size: Same as the object
Magnification: $m = -1$

In many experimental set-ups,the source and screen are fixed at a distance $D$ and the lens is movable. Show that there are two positions for the lens for which an image is formed on the screen. Find the distance between these points and the ratio of the image sizes for these two points.

An object is placed at a point distant $x$ from the focus of a convex lens and its image is formed at $I$ as shown in the figure. The distances $x$ and $x'$ satisfy the relation:

In the displacement method,there are two positions of a lens for which we get a clear image on a screen. If the first position of the lens is at $40 \, cm$ from the object and the second position is at $80 \, cm$ from the object,the focal length of the lens is ......... $cm$.

$A$ thin equiconvex glass lens of refractive index $1.5$ has a power of $5 \,D$. When the lens is immersed in a liquid of refractive index $\mu$, it acts as a divergent lens of focal length $100 \,cm$. The value of $\mu$ of the liquid is:

The radii of curvature for a thin convex lens are $10 \ cm$ and $15 \ cm$ respectively. The focal length of the lens is $12 \ cm$. The refractive index of the lens material is:
