(N/A) Convex lens:
$(i)$ Object position: At infinity $(u = \infty)$
Image position: At focus $(F)$
Image type: Real and inverted
Image size: Highly diminished
Magnification: $m \approx 0$ (negative)
(ii) Object position: Beyond $2F$ $(u > 2F)$
Image position: Between $F$ and $2F$
Image type: Real and inverted
Image size: Diminished
Magnification: $-1 < m < 0$
(iii) Object position: At $2F$ $(u = 2F)$
Image position: At $2F$
Image type: Real and inverted
Image size: Same as the object
Magnification: $m = -1$

An equiconvex lens is cut into two halves along $(i) XOX'$ and $(ii) YOY'$ as shown in the figure. Let $f, f', f''$ be the focal lengths of the complete lens,of each half in case $(i),$ and of each half in case $(ii),$ respectively. Choose the correct statement from the following:

The focal length of a biconvex lens made of glass with equal radii of curvature is $f$. If the lens is dipped in water,what will be its new focal length? (Take the refractive index of glass as $3/2$ and water as $4/3$)

$A$ convex lens $T$ is used to form an image whose size is one-fourth that of the size of the object. Then the object distance is (in $f$)

In the case of the displacement method of lenses,the product of magnification in both cases is

Explain how the image is formed by a thin convex lens and derive the lens maker's formula: $\frac{1}{f} = (n_{21} - 1) \left[ \frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2} \right]$.
