Question

PERIOD THIN LENS PROBLEMS Use the thin lens equation to solve the following problems showing ALL of your work. Pro math work are worth 3 points (correct answers worth 1 point; correct work answers worth 1 point. Ray diagrams are required for p (each correct ray diagram worth 5 points). blems involving worth 2 points); single work roblems asking for the location of the image 1) An object is placed 20 cm in front of a convex le ns with a focal length of 5 cm a) what is the image location? (o(ob C b) what is the magnification of the ima c) is the image real or virtual? V d) is the image upright or inverted? age 2) The image produced by a converging lens is located at 8 cm when the object is placed 24 cm in front of the lens m

Explanation / Answer

using lens formula

1/f = 1/di + 1/do

1/di = 1/5 - 1/20

di = 6.67 cm

magnification = - di/do

m = - (6.67/20) = - 0.33

if we get distance of image (di) is negative so image is virtual but here image is real.

here magnification is negative so image is inverted.
