When an object is placed at the proper distance to the left of a converging lens, the image is focused on a screen 30cm to the right of the lens. A diverging lens with focal length f=-24cm is now placed 15cm to the right of the converging lens. How far and in which direction do we need to move the screen to get a sharp image? How much larger is the new image?

Consider a converging lens whose focal length is 5.47 cm. An object is placed on the axis of the lens at a distance of 11.7 cm from the lens. 1. How far is the object's image from the lens? In centimeters. 2. If it can be determined, is the image real or virtual? virtual real cannot be determined 3. If it can be determined, is the image upright or inverted with respect to the object? inverted upright cannot be determined

A converging lens has focal length f = 50 [cm] and an object is placed in the back of the lens 100 [cm] away. Calculate the position of the image q and the magnification M. Also state the meaning of q and M being positive or negative numbers. Before you calculate consider whether the numbers you plug in should be positive or negative, see sign-convention table given in lecture. Note: the object is in the back of the lens, that...
