A thin lens is made of glass that has refractive index n = 1.50. The lens is surrounded by air. The left-hand spherical surface of the lens is concave with radius of curvature R and the right-hand side is flat, so the lens is thinner in the middle than at its edges. An object is placed 12.0 cm to the left of the center of the lens. What is the value of R if the image formed by the lens...

The medium-power objective lens in a laboratory microscope has a focal length fobjective = 3.75 mm. If this lens produces a lateral magnification of -53.0, what is its "working distance"; that is, what is the distance from the object to the objective lens? What is the focal length of an eyepiece lens that will provide an overall magnification of -130? Assume student's near-point distance is N=25cm.
