a lens with f = 50.0 cm is held 55.0 cm from an object. what is the image distance? (unit = cm)

Sagot :

Answer: 550 cm

Explanation:

Original equation: 1/f= 1/do + 1/di.

F=50.0 cm, and do=55.0.

Since we don't have di, we'll have to subtract do to the other side, making the equation: 1/f - 1/do= 1/di.

Doing the math, 1/f - 1/do is 0.0018181818

Then to get di by itself, you multiply both sides by di. Then you divide by 0.0018181818 to get di by itself. You then get: di= 1/0.0018181818

At that point, you just divide 1 by 0.0018181818, which will give you 550 cm

There could be simpler way, but that is just what I did to get the answer. Answer was right on Acellus
