A diverging lens with a focal length of 8 cm is placed 8 cm to the left of a convex mirror with a focal length of 18 cm. A 19 cm tall object is placed 3 cm to the left of the diverging lens, and an image is formed after the light passes through the lens, reflects off the mirror, and then passes back through the lens. A. Determine the location of the final image. B. Determine the height of the final image. C. Is the final image real or virtual?

A microscope has an objective lens with a focal length of 16.22 mm and an eyepiece with a focal length of 9.50 mm. With the length of the barrel set at 29.0 cm, the diameter of a red blood cells image subtends an angle of 1.43 mrad with the eye. It the final image distance is 29.0 cm from the eyepiece, what is the actual diameter of the red blood cell? Hint: To solve this question, go back to basics and use the thin-lens equation.
An object 1.50 cm high is held 3.00 cm from a person’s cornea, and its reflected image is measured to be 0.167 cm high. (a) What is the magnification? (b) Where is the image? (c) Find the radius of curvature of the convex mirror formed by the cornea. (Note that this technique is used by optometrists to measure the curvature of the cornea for contact lens fitting. The instrument used is called a keratometer, or curve measurer.)
A virtual image is formed 20.0 cm from a concave mirror having a radius of curvature of 40.0 cm. (a) Find the position of the object. (b) What is the magnification of the mirror?
. A small object is placed to the left of a convex lens and on its optical axis. The object is 30 cm from the lens, which has a focal length of 10 cm. Determine the location of the image formed by the lens. Describe the image.
Suppose you want to use a converging lens to project the image of two trees onto a screen. As show n in Figure CQ36.9, one tree is a distance x from the lens and the other is at 2x. You adjust the screen so that the near tree is in locus. It you now want the far tree to be in focus, do you move the screen toward or away from the lens?
