    A thin lens of focal length \[f\]and aperture diameter \[d\] forms an image of intensity\[I.\]If the central part of the aperture upto diameter \[d/2\]is blocked by an opaque paper, then the new focal length and intensity of image will be

    A)  \[\frac{f}{2},\frac{l}{2}\]

    B)  \[\frac{f}{2},\frac{3}{4}l\]

    C)  \[f,\frac{l}{2}\]

    D)  \[f,\frac{3}{4}l\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     On blocking the central part of the lens, focal length does not change so f remains same. Intensity of image is directly proportional to the area of lens.                            Initial area, \[{{A}_{1}}=\pi {{\left( \frac{d}{2} \right)}^{2}}=\frac{\pi {{d}^{2}}}{4}\] On blocking, the central part of the aperture upto diameter\[\frac{d}{2},\] the new area \[{{A}_{2}}=\pi {{\left( \frac{d}{2} \right)}^{2}}-\pi {{\left( \frac{d}{4} \right)}^{2}}\] \[=\frac{\pi {{d}^{2}}}{4}-\frac{\pi {{d}^{2}}}{16}\] \[=\frac{3\pi {{d}^{2}}}{16}\] As \[\frac{{{l}_{2}}}{{{l}_{1}}}=\frac{{{A}_{2}}}{{{A}_{1}}}\] \[=\frac{3\pi {{d}^{2}}.4}{16\pi {{d}^{2}}}=\frac{12}{16}=\frac{3}{4}\] \[\therefore \] \[{{l}_{2}}=\frac{3}{4}{{l}_{1}}\]
