A leaf of length h is positioned d = 76.5 cm in front of a converging lens with a focal length of 40.0 cm. An observer views the image of the leaf from a position 1.26 m behind the lens, as shown in the figure below. An eye on the right side of the figure looks left along a horizontal Principal axis that runs through the centers of a converging lens left of middle and a leaf on the left. The eye is a horizontal distance of 1.26 m from the lens, and the leaf is a horizontal distance d from the lens. (a) What is the magnitude of the lateral magnification (the ratio of image size to the object size) produced by the lens?
