    A thin lens focal length \[{{f}_{1}}\] and its aperture has diameter d. It forms an image of intensity I. Now the central part of the aperture upto diameter \[\frac{d}{2}\] is blocked by an opaque paper. The focal length and image intensity will change to [CPMT 1989; MP PET 1997; KCET 1998]

    A)            \[\frac{f}{2}\] and \[\frac{I}{2}\]                                     

    B)            \[f\]  and \[\frac{I}{4}\]

    C)            \[\frac{3f}{4}\] and \[\frac{I}{2}\]                                   

    D)            \[f\]  and \[\frac{3I}{4}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                       \[I\propto {{A}^{2}}\Rightarrow \frac{{{I}_{2}}}{{{I}_{1}}}={{\left( \frac{{{A}_{2}}}{{{A}_{1}}} \right)}^{2}}=\frac{\pi {{r}^{2}}-\frac{\pi {{r}^{2}}}{4}}{\pi {{r}^{2}}}=\frac{3}{4}\]                    \[\Rightarrow {{I}_{2}}=\frac{3}{4}{{I}_{1}}\] and focal length remains unchanged.
