Explanation:
Given: h1=3cm;u=−14cm;f=−21cm
By lens formula, v1−u1=f1
v1−−141=−211
v=−8.4cm
Now, Magnification formula for lens,
m=hh′=uv
h2=148.4×3
⇒h2=1.8cm
If the object is moved further away from the lens, the image will continue to move towards the lens and the size of the image will decrease with an increase in the distance.
