Announcements Reflection and Refraction Image Formation Final QuestionsQuestionA converging lens has a focal length of 10.0 cm. An object is placed 30.0 cm from the lens. Find the imagedistance and describe the image.AnswerBecause the lens is a converging lens, its focal length is positiveWe expect the possibilities of both real and virtual imagesUsing the thin lens equation 1/p + 1/q = 1/f and solving for q we find thatq =( 1f= +15.0 cm−p) 1 −1 ()1=10.0 cm − 1 −130.0 cmBecause this image distance is positive, the image is realThe magnification of the image isM = − q p= −15.0cm30.0 cm = −0.500The magnification of the image tells us that the image is reduced in height by one half, and the negativesign for M tells us that the image is invertedLight and Image Formation
