Camera zoom is often a two lens system. A converging lens followed by a diverging lens. If the focal lengths are 10 [cm] and -10 [cm] respectively and the lens separation is 5 [cm], where is the "final" image (after passing through both lenses)?

Your telescope has a 850-mm-focal-length objective and a 22 mm -focal-length eyepiece. One evening you decide to look at the full moon in (Figure 1), which has an angular size of 0.52 ∘ when viewed with the naked eye. What angle (in degrees) does the image of the moon subtend when you look at it through your telescope? Suppose you decide to take a photograph of the moon using your telescope. You position a CCD detector so that it captures the image produced by the objective lens. What is the diameter of that image?
A slide projector needs to create a 88-cmcm-high image of a 2.0-cmcm-tall slide. The screen is 340 cmcm from the slide. What focal length does the lens need? Assume that it is a thin lens. Express your answer with the appropriate units. Enter positive value if the lens is converging and negative value if the lens is diverging. How far should you place the lens from the slide? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
Is this question set up wrong? I think the statement "The magnification of a book held 7.50 cm from a 10.0 cm-focal length lens is 3.00." is impossible using the lens equation 1/do + 1/di = 1/f and the equation for magnification m = -di / do.
A compound lens system consists of two converging lenses, one at x=−20.0cm with focal length f1=+10.0cm, and the other at x=+20.0cm with focal length f2=+8.00cm. (Figure 1) An object 1.00cm tall is placed at x=−50.0cm. (A) What is the location of the final image produced by the compound lens system? Give the x coordinate of the image. Express your answer in centimeters, to three significant figures or as a fraction.

Two lenses are placed along an optical rail. One is a converging lens, with a focal length of f1 = 30.3 cm. The second lens, a diverging lens with a focal length of f2 = −20.0 cm, is placed d = 110 cm to the right of the converging lens. An object ho = 2.02 cm high is placed p1 = 40.5 cm to the left of the converging lens. (a) Determine the position of the final image.

In a two-lens system, the focl length of the lens is f1 = 4.00 cm, and that of then lens 2 is f2 = 8.00 cm. The distance between the lenses is 16 cm. If an object O is 2.00 cm high and is placed 6.00 cm in front of the lens 1, where is the final image through the two-lens system?
The image of the Moon is formed by a concave mirror (aka telescope) whose radius of curvature is 9.62m at a time when the Moon's angular diameter is 0.523degrees. What is the diameter (magnitude only) of the image (cm) of the moon? HINT: What is the property of the rays coming from one point on the edge of the Moon (think of the moon as being infinitely far away)? Where do those rays converge to form an image of that point? Use the small angle approximation: sin(x)=tan(x)=x for |x|<<1, when x is measured in radians.
