$A$ point source of light is moving at a rate of $2 \,cm \,s^{-1}$ towards a thin convex lens of focal length $10 \,cm$ along its optical axis. When the source is $15 \,cm$ away from the lens,the image is moving at:

  • A
    $4 \,cm \,s^{-1}$ towards the lens
  • B
    $8 \,cm \,s^{-1}$ towards the lens
  • C
    $4 \,cm \,s^{-1}$ away from the lens
  • D
    $8 \,cm \,s^{-1}$ away from the lens

The word $KVPY$ is written on a board and viewed through different lenses such that the board is at a distance beyond the focal length of the lens. Ignoring magnification effects,consider the following statements:
$(I)$ First image has been viewed from the planar side of a plano-convex lens and second image from the convex side of a plano-convex lens.
$(II)$ First image has been viewed from the concave side of a plano-concave lens and second image from the convex side of a plano-convex lens.
$(III)$ First image has been viewed from the concave side of a plano-concave lens and second image from the planar side of a plano-convex lens.
