okay the problem reads
-an object 3 cm tall is placed 16 cm in front of a diverging lens with a focal length of 24cm. Find the location and size of the image. What kind of image is it?
1/f = 1/di+1/do
hi/ho = di/do
I'm not to sure how to solve this i used the equation; 1/f = 1/di+1/do and solved for di, getting -48cm. then pluged it into the equation hi/ho = di/do, and got -9cm. It doesn't seem right to me because when i draw out the problem it shows the image as smaller then the actual size, not bigger. please help!
