In a convex lens of focal length FF, the minimum distance between an object and its real image must be

Options

  1. A3F3 F
  2. B4F4 F
  3. C32F\frac{3}{2} F
  4. D2F2 F

Correct answer

B. 4F4 F

Step-by-step solution

Let LL is the distance between a real object and its real image formed by a convex lens, then as L=(∣u∣+∣v∣)=(u−v)2+2uvL=(|u|+|v|) =(\sqrt{u}-\sqrt{v})^2+2 \sqrt{u v} L will be minimum, when (u−v)2=0 i.e., u=v(\sqrt{u}-\sqrt{v})^2=0 \text{ i.e., } u=v Putting, u=−uu=-u and v=+uv=+u in lens formula, (0v−@u= @) F(0u−®−u= ๑) Fu=2F∴(L)min⁡=22−×2=4(Using⁡(i))\frac{(0}{v}-\frac{@}{u}=\frac{\text{ @) }}{F} \frac{(0}{u}-\frac{®}{-u}=\frac{\text{ ๑) }}{F} u=2 F \therefore \quad(L)_{\min }=2 \sqrt{2-\times 2}=4 (U \operatorname{sing}(\mathrm{i}))
