9. Large number of thin stripes of black paint are made on the surface of a convex lens of focal length 20 cm to catch the image of a white horse. The image will be ?

a zebra of less brightness

a horse of less brightness

a horse of black stripes

a zebra of black stripes

Answer: a horse of less brightness

Explanation:

Complete image of the white horse is formed but of less intensity, the light falling on the curved portion will not react at the image position.
