Question
consider an object 2 cm tall and the object located 6 m to the left of ( -2D) spectacle lens, Calculate the position and height of the image for in case of convergence and divergence lens?
Expert Solution
Step 1
The negative power of a lens represents that the lens is a diverging lens. Since two different cases are provided in the question so the same power is used by changing the sign for the converging lens to solve this problem.
For the converging lens:
The thin lens formula is:
Substitute the known values and solve.
Step 2
Magnification of the converging lens is:
Substitute the known values and solve for image height.
Step by step
Solved in 4 steps with 8 images
