Diverging lens focal length = 20cm, Image distance? with object distance of 40cm?

An object is placed in front of a diverging lens
with a focal length of 20.0 cm.
a) Find the image distance for an object
distance of 40.0 cm. Answer in units of cm.


find magnification please??

A convex lens of focal length 10 cm is placed at a distance of 12 cm from wall . How far from the lens ...?

Lens formula is
1/v - 1/u = 1/f
Sign convention is distance from the center of the lens to be positive in one direction and negative in the other.
=> 1/12 - 1/u = 1/10
=> 1/u = 1/12 - 1/10 = - 1/60
=> the object to be place on side opposite to that of the wall
at a distance of 60 cm. from the lens.

A 5.00 cm high object is located 39 cm in front of a convex lens of focal length 20.0 cm.?

A 5.00 cm high object is located 39 cm in front of a convex lens of focal length 20.0 cm.?

I will do the first one and you get the idea and attempt the rest yourself.
However I give you my EXCEL file with the answers see first LINK.

If you get stuck EMAIL me, though the last time I said that I got 10 points deducted, never found out why but I still say it anyway.


Basic Lens equation (All things MUST be in the same units eq cm)
1/f = 1u + 1/v
f is the focal length of the lens put NEGATIVE for a CONCAVE (diverging) lens
u is distance from lens to the object on the left hand side of the lens (put negeative if on the right).
v is distance from lens to the image on the right hand side of the lens. (will be negative if image on the left of the lens)

Mag = -v/u (negative because image is upside down)

So in our case we have

1/20 = 1/39 + 1/v

1/v 1/20 – 1/39

v = 41.052 cm to 2 dp to RIGHT of lens using calculator. keep number for mag calculation

As V is positive this means the image is REAL

Mag = -41.052 / 39 = -1.053x to 2 dp keep number for image size calculation

Image Size = 5*Mag = -5*1.053 = -5.263 cm

As this is negative this means the image is upside down (INVERTED)
