Lens Problems
problem 24. A person looks at a gem using a concverging lense with a focal lenght of 13.7 cm. The lense forms a virtual image 35.5 cm from the lense.
a) Find the magnifaction.
This is what I have done so far:
f=13.7 , q= -35.5
1/p+1/q=1/f
1/f-1/q=1/p
1/13.7-(-1/35.5)=9.88516=p
M=-q/p
=--35.5/9.88516
= 4.02333
Is this right??
Problem 30. A magnifying glass has a converging lens of focal length 17.4 cm. At what distance from a nickel should you hold this lens to get an image with a magnificaiton of +2.06? Abswer in cm.
got p=8.7 and M=1.841932169 is this right?
