An object is placed 14.0 cm from a diverging lens. If a virtual image appears 10.0 cm from the lens on the same side as the object, what is the focal length of the lens? Select the correct response: -34 cm -50 cm -1.6 cm -5.8 cm

Step 1
Step 1: Use the lens equation: 1/f = 1/do + 1/di, where f is the focal length, do is the distance of the object, and di is the distance of the image. Show more…

An object is placed 5.5 cm in front of a thin converging lens, and its image forms 12 cm from the lens on the same side as the object. What is the focal length of the lens? 10 cm 6.2 cm -8.6 cm 8.6 cm An object is placed in front of a thin converging lens of focal length 12 cm. The image of the object is inverted and 3.0 times as tall as the actual object. What is the distance of the object to the lens? 48 cm 16 cm 8.0 cm 20 cm

QUESTIONS: 1- Consider a converging lens with a focal length of 50 cm. What would be the image distance if the object is located 100 cm from the lens? 2- What would be the image distance if the object above is instead located 40 cm from the lens?
