Sunlight of intensity 1.3 kWm -2 is incident normally on a thin convex lens of focal length 20 cm. Ignore the energy loss of light due to the lens and assume that the lens aperture size is much smaller than its focal length. The average intensity of light, in kW m -2 , at a distance 22 cm from the lens on the other side is__________.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
130.00
(130.00)

The area of A over which the light falls satisfy : Lens

so intensity at A = 100 x 1.3 =130 kW/m 2 .
