36 A student was doing an experiment to check the focal length of a converging lens whose focal as marked on its cover was 15.5 cm. he then placed an object at different positions in front of the lens and tried to get image on a screed. The table shows the measurements recorded by the student for the object distance u and the image distance.
V-
u/cm
31 cm
16.5 cm
v/cm
31 cm
Not in measurable because image is not obtained on screen
He came to the conclusion that
(a) The focal length of lens is same as mentioned
(b) Focal length was lesser than mentioned.
(c) The focal length of lens is larger than mentioned.
(d) The focal length of lens cannot be estimated.
37 While doing an experiment it convex lens a student found that the image distance of object is equal to object ideate and also the heights of object and the image are equal height, in this situation the position of object is at:
(a) Focus of lens (b) at double the focal length.
(c) Between focus and optical center
(d) Between focus and center of curvature.
