JEE MAIN - Physics (2025 - 28th January Evening Shift - No. 16)

In a long glass tube, mixture of two liquids A and B with refractive indices 1.3 and 1.4 respectively, forms a convex refractive meniscus towards A . If an object placed at 13 cm from the vertex of the meniscus in A forms an image with a magnification of ${ }^{\prime}-2^{\prime}$ then the radius of curvature of meniscus is :
$ \frac{2}{3} \text{ cm} $
$ \frac{4}{3} \text{ cm} $
$ \frac{1}{3} \text{ cm} $
1 cm

JEE Main 2025 (Online) 28th January Evening Shift Physics - Geometrical Optics Question 13 English Explanation

$$\begin{aligned} & \frac{\mathrm{n}_2}{\mathrm{v}}-\frac{\mathrm{n}_1}{\mathrm{u}} \frac{\mathrm{n}_2-\mathrm{n}_1}{\mathrm{R}} \\ & \frac{1.4}{\mathrm{v}}-\frac{1.3}{-13}=\frac{0.1}{\mathrm{R}} \\ & \frac{1.4}{\mathrm{v}}=\frac{1-\mathrm{R}}{10 \mathrm{R}} \\ & \frac{1.4}{\mathrm{v}}=\frac{1-\mathrm{R}}{10 \mathrm{R}} \\ & \mathrm{~m}=\frac{\mathrm{v} / \mathrm{n}_2}{\mathrm{u} / \mathrm{n}_1} \\ & -2 \times \frac{(-13)}{1.3}=\frac{10 \mathrm{R}}{1-\mathrm{R}} \\ & \mathrm{R}=\frac{2}{3} \mathrm{~cm} \end{aligned}$$
