Step 1
Since the focal length is given in millimeters (167mm), we need to convert it to centimeters for consistency in units. We know that 1 cm is equal to 10 mm. So, we can convert the focal length as follows: 167 mm * (1 cm / 10 mm) = 16.7 cm Now, the focal length is Show more…

Calculate When an object is located $32 \mathrm{~cm}$ to the left of a lens, the image is formed $17 \mathrm{~cm}$ to the right of the lens. What is the focal length of the lens?
A lens of focal length 16 cm is being used to magnify an object 1.1 cm high. The object is 30 cm away from the viewer's eye and x1 = 7.3 cm from the lens. (So, x2 = 22.7 cm.) (a) Locate the image of the object formed by the lens. Give both the distance of the image from the lens and from the eye. Also give the height of the image.
