Two lenses are mounted d = 28 cm apart on an optical bench. The focal length of the first lens is f1 = 9.1 cm and that of the second lens is f2 = 4.1 cm. An object of height ho = 3.9 cm is placed at a distance of do = 25 cm in front of the first lens.
Part (a) Ignoring the second lens for now, at what distance, in centimeters, behind the first lens is the object’s image formed by that lens?
Part (b) Calculate the magnification of that image, including its sign.
Part (c) Which choice best describes that image?
Part (d) Now consider the two-lens system and the final image it forms, i.e., the image created by the second lens. What is the distance, in centimeters, between the object and its final image?

The slide-to-screen distance is 3.04 m. (Enter your answers to at least one decimal place.) (a) Determine the focal length of the projection lens. mm (b) How far from the slide should the lens of the projector be placed to form the image on the screen? mmarrow_forwardHomework 12 Problem 10: Two lenses are mounted d = 27 cm apart on an optical bench. The focal length of the first lens is f1 = 5.1 cm and that of the second lens is f2 = 4.4 cm. An object of height ho = 3.5 cm is placed at a distance of do = 21 cm in front of the first lens. Part (a) Ignoring the second lens for now, at what distance, in centimeters, behind the first lens is the object’s image formed by that lens? di = ______ Part (b) Calculate the magnification of that image, including its sign. m = ______ Part (c) Now consider the two-lens system and the final image it forms, i.e., the image created by the second lens. What is the distance, in centimeters, between the object and its final image? D = ______arrow_forward

- There is a lens combinations between two converging lenses that have focal lengths of f1=13 cm (lens 1) and f2=16 cm (lens 2). They are separated by 56 cm along a horizontal line. There is a lit candle (height ho) placed 36 cm in front of the lens 1 (f1=13 cm). Thus, the separation between the candler and the second lens (f2=16 cm) is 92 cm Please calculate actual postion of final image. Is it real/imaginary?arrow_forwardThe figure shows an object and its image formed by a thin lens. Assume that d1 = 0.919 m, d2 = 0.861 m, and h = 7.50E-2 m.
