    The image of a small electric bulb fixed on the wall of a room is to be obtained on the opposite wall 3 m away by means of a large convex lens. What is the maximum possible focal length of the lens required for the purpose?
    Ans : Distance between the object and the image, d = 3 m

    Maximum focal length of the convex lens =

    For real images, the maximum focal length is given as:



    Hence, for the required purpose, the maximum possible focal length of the convex lens is 0.75 m.
