2. Using the equipment shown here, the table of measurements (shown below) was completed. Using a suitable formula linking u - object distance, v- image distance, and the focal length of the lens, calculate the average focal length (f) of the lens. Experiment | u/cm | v/cm 1 | 29.33 | 11.00 2 | 23.12 | 12.00 3 | 20.80 | 13.00 4 | 15.82 | 15.00 5 | 16.22 | 17.00

Step 1
Step 1: Use the formula \( F = \frac{1}{\frac{1}{U} + \frac{1}{V}} \) where \( F \) is the focal length, \( U \) is the object distance, and \( V \) is the image distance. Show more…

Two converging lenses with focal lengths of 45 cm and 22 cm are 11 cm apart. A 2.0-cm-tall object is 20 cm in front of the 45-cm-focal-length lens. A) Calculate the distance between the final image and 22-cm-focal-length lens. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. B) Calculate the image height. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
