Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

$ {m _{\infty }}=-\frac{v _{o}}{u _{o}}\times \frac{D}{f _{e}} $ From $ \frac{1}{f _{o}}=\frac{1}{v _{o}}-\frac{1}{u _{o}} $

$ \Rightarrow \frac{1}{(+1.2)}=\frac{1}{v _{o}}-\frac{1}{(-1.25)} $

$ \Rightarrow v _{o}=30\ cm $

$ \therefore |{m _{\infty }}|\ =\frac{30}{1.25}\times \frac{25}{3}=200 $
