Explanation / Answer

Given :    Focal length ( f ) = 9.30 cm Image distance ( di ) = -24.0 cm ( Image is virtual) a ) As we know that      From the lens equation    1/f = 1/do + 1/di    1/do = 1/f - 1/di            = 1/ 9.3 + 1/ 24.0       do = ---- cm Solve it b )      Near point of engraver is(N) = 24.0cm Angular magnification ( M ) = ( 1/f - 1/di ) N Solve it
