A convex lens of focal length 20cm20cm is placed in front of convex mirror with principal axis coinciding each other. The distance between the lens and mirror is 10cm10cm. A point object is placed on principal axis at a distance of 60cm60cm from the convex lens. The image formed by combination coincides the object itself. The focal length of the convex mirror is _____ cmcm.A convex lens of focal length 20cm is placed in front of convex mirror with principal axis coinciding each other. The

Step-by-step solution

A convex lens of focal length 20cm is placed in front of convex mirror with principal axis coinciding each other. The

For lens 1v−1u=1f\dfrac{1}{v} - \dfrac{1}{u} = \dfrac{1}{f}

⇒1v−1(−60)=120⇒1v+160=120⇒ \dfrac{1}{v} - \dfrac{1}{\left(- 60\right)} = \dfrac{1}{20} ⇒ \dfrac{1}{v} + \dfrac{1}{60} = \dfrac{1}{20}

v=30cmv = 30cm

For the final image to be formed on the object itself, after refraction from lens the ray should meet the mirror perpendicularly and the image by lens should be on the centre of curvature of mirror.

R=30−10=20cmR = 30 - 10 = 20cm.

Now the focal length of mirror fm=R2=10cm{f}_{m} = \dfrac{R}{2} = 10cm
