Important Questions on Thin Lenses
An extended object is placed at point , in front of a convex lens and a concave lens is placed behind it, as shown in the figure. The radii of curvature of all the curved surfaces in both the lenses are . The refractive index of both the lenses is . The total magnification of this lens system is:

An optical bench has long scale having four equal divisions in each While measuring the focal length of a convex lens, the lens is kept at mark of the scale and the object pin is kept at mark. The image of the object pin on the other side of the lens overlaps with image pin that is kept at mark. In this experiment, the percentage error in the measurement of the focal length of the lens is_____
Three glass cylinders of equal height and same refractive index are placed on a horizontal surface shown in figure. Cylinder has a flat top, cylinder has a convex top and cylinder has a concave top. The radii of curvature of the two curved tops are same If and are the apparent depths of a point on the bottom of the three cylinders, respectively, the correct statement(s) is/are

A thin convex lens is made of two materials with refractive indices and as shown in figure. The radius of curvature of the left and right spherical surfaces are equal. is the focal length of the lens when The focal length is when and Assuming and the correct statement(s) is/are:

Sunlight of intensity is incident normally on a thin convex lens of focal length . Ignore the energy loss of light due to the lens and assume that the lens aperture size is much smaller than its focal length. The average intensity of light, in , at a distance from the lens on the other side is __________.
A small object is placed to the left of thin convex lens of focal length . A convex spherical mirror of radius of curvature is placed to the right of the lens at a distance of . The mirror is tilted such that the axis of the mirror is at an angle to the axis of the lens, as shown in the figure. If the origin of the coordinate system is taken to be at the centre of the lens, the coordinates (in ) of the point at which the image is formed are:

A plano-convex lens is made of a material of refractive index n. When a small object is placed 30 cm away in front of the curved surface of the lens, an image of double the size of the object is produced. Due to reflection from the convex surface of the lens, another faint image is observed at a distance of 10 cm away from the lens. Which of the following statement(s) is (are) true?
The image of an object, formed by a plano - convex lens at a distance of behind the lens, is real and is one-third the size of the object. The wavelength of light inside the lens is times the wavelength in free space. The radius of the curved surface of the lens is
