Question

Problem 6 Two thin lenses with a focal length of magnitude 18.0 cm, the first diverging and the second converging, are located 13.5 cm apart. An object 2.40 mm tall is placed 30.0 cm to the left of the first (diverging) lens.

Explanation / Answer

f is the focal length of combination

1/f = (1/f1) + (1/f2) - d/(f1f2)

where, f1 = -18cm and f2 = +18cm

1/f = (1/-18) +(1/+18) - 13.5/(-18*18) = 13.5/324

f = 324/13.5 = 24 cm

Part A

v = uf/(u - f) = 30*24/(30 - 24) = 30*24/6 = 120 cm

Part B

Image is real because,

v is positive and is on other side of lens combination.

Part C

m = -v/u = -120/30 = -4

The height of the image is 4*2.40 = 9.6 mm

Part D

Image is erected.

because the value of m is negative.
