7. An object and a screen are mounted on an optical bench and
a converging lens is placed between them so that a sharp
image is obtained on the screen. The linear magnification of

This acts as an (virtual) object for the mirror which forms its

tray).

The water tray shifts the image by t 1 = h 1 34
h/4 + 80 = 85 cm h = 20 cm.
This gives the position of image I2. Now this real image will
act as a real object for the front surface where again
refraction will take place.
