Question
A lighted candle is placed 39.0 cm in front of a diverging lens. The light passes through the diverging lens and on to a converging lens (f = 10.0 cm) that is placed 5.00 cm from the diverging lens. The final image is real, inverted, and 44.0 cm beyond the converging lens. Find the focal length of the diverging lens.
