A convex lens of focal length 0.10 m forms a real image of a candle of height 5.0 cm placed 0.40 m from the lens onto a screen. A glass slab of thickness 3.0 mm and refractive index 1.6 is placed directly behind the screen, covering the image region. (i) By how much must the screen be moved away from the lens to bring the image back into sharp focus? (ii) State the linear magnification of the image and the image height.

Answer Options

A. Screen moved 1.2 mm away; magnification = -0.40 (inverted); image height ≈ 2.00 cm
B. Screen moved 3.0 mm away; magnification = -0.20 (inverted); image height ≈ 1.00 cm
C. Screen moved 2.5 mm away; magnification = -0.25 (inverted); image height ≈ 1.25 cm
Correct Answer D. Screen moved 1.8 mm away; magnification = -0.33 (inverted); image height ≈ 1.67 cm
Correct Answer
D
Correct Option:
Screen moved 1.8 mm away; magnification = -0.33 (inverted); image height ≈ 1.67 cm
