A source of light is placed at double focal length from a convergent lens. The focal length of the lens is f = 30 cm. At what distance from the lens should a flat mirror be placed so that ray reflected from the mirror are parallel after passing through the lens for the second time –

A

Beyond 2f

B

Between lens & f

C

Between f & 2f near 2f

D

Between f & 2f equidistant from f & 2f

Answer

Between f & 2f equidistant from f & 2f

Explanation

Solution

x – f = 2f – x

2x = 3f

x = 1.5 f
