    A luminous object is separated from a screen by distance d. A convex lens is placed between the object and the screen such that it forms a distinct image on the screen. The maximum possible focal length of this convex lens is

    A)  \[4d\]

    B)  \[2d\]

    C)  \[\frac{d}{2}\]

    D)  \[\frac{d}{4}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     Focal length of a convex lens by displacement method Focal length of the convex lens \[f=\frac{{{a}^{2}}-{{b}^{2}}}{4a}\] where a = distance between the image and object and b = distance between two positions of lens Fact The distance between the two points should be greater than four time the focal length of the convex lens, i.e., d > 4f. So, the maximum possible focal length of this convex lens is\[\frac{d}{4}.\]
