3. A 3.0cm tall object is located 5.0cm from a diverging lens that has a focal length of 10.0cm. Where is the image located and what type of image is it?

(a) On the same side as the object, 5.00 cm from the lens. Real and Upright

(b) On the same side as the object, 5.00 cm from the lens. Virtual and Upright

(c) On the same side as the object, 5.00 cm from the lens. Real and Inverted

(d) On the opposite side as the object, 5.00 cm from the lens. Virtual and Inverted

(e) On the opposite side as the object, 5.00 cm from the lens. Virtual and Upright

Explanation / Answer

object distance = U = 25 cm

focal length = F = 10 cm

image distance = V = ?

by the lens maker's formula

we have

1/F = 1/U + 1/V

1/V = 1/F - 1/U

= 1/10 - 1/25

V =+ 16.7 cm

On the opposite side as the object, 16.7 cm from the lens. Real and Inverted
