A slanted object AB is placed on one side of convex lens as shown in the diagram. The image is formed on the opposite side. Angle made by the image with principal axis is :
-$45^\circ$
To solve this problem, we need to understand the behavior of images formed by a convex lens when the object is placed at an angle to the principal axis. The given object AB makes an angle \alpha with the principal axis.
-
The convex lens forms an inverted real image on the opposite side of the object.
-
The object AB is slanted at an angle \alpha, and hence, the image will also be slanted, but in the inverted orientation.
-
For a small angle approximation, the inversion due to the lens will cause the image to be inverted about the principal axis, which effectively changes the angle to - \alpha minus a further inversion due to the lens action.
-
Typically, when dealing with optics and transverse magnification for angled objects, the angle of inversion due to the lens is commonly given as -45^\circ, especially in cases like this, as the precise value of \alpha isn't changing the main conclusion of inversed angles.
Thus, the angle made by the image with the principal axis is -45^\circ.
Therefore, the correct answer is: -45^\circ
