Question

 

In this experiment, the distances are p = xL - xO and q = xS - xL.  They satisfy the thin-lens equation, when the image is focused on the screen:

1/p+1/q=1/f

If you place the screen at a different position, you get a blurry image

 

Suppose instead the numbers were these.  Calculate q.

  • f = 112 mm
  • p = f - ε
  • ε = 1.1 mm
