Question

The moon's diameter is 3.48 × 106 m, and its mean distance from the earth is 3.85 × 108 m. The moon is being photographed by a camera whose lens has a focal length of 50.0 mm. (a) Find the diameter of the moon's image on the slide film. (b) When the slide is projected onto a screen that is 16.2 m from the lens of the projector (f = 100.0 mm), what is the diameter of the moon's image on the screen?

Step 1

Given: Moon's diameter (D_O) = 3.48 × 10^6 m Distance from the earth (S) = 3.85 × 10^8 m Focal length of the camera lens (f) = 50.0 mm = 0.05 m Using the lens formula: 1/f = 1/do + 1/di where do is the object distance (distance from the moon to the camera lens) Show more…
