Q1:
A student has focused the image of a candle flame on a white screen using a convex lens. The situation is as given below :
Length of the flame = 2 cm
Focal length of the lens = 12 cm
Distance of the flame from the lens = 16 cm
If the flame is perpendicular to the principal axis of the lens, calculate the values of the following :
(i) Distance of the image from the lens
(ii) Length of the image formed
