- A leaf of length h is positioned 71.0 cm in front of a converging lens with a focal length of 39.0 cm. An observer views the image of the leaf from a position 1.26 in behind the lens, as shown in Figure P25.25. (a) What is the magnitude of the lateral magnification (the ratio of the image size to the object size) produced by the lens? (b) What angular magnification is achieved by viewing the image of the leaf rather than viewing the loaf directly? Figure P25.25arrow_forwardAn object is placed a distance of 10.0 cm to the left of a thin converging lens of focal length f = 8.00 cm, and a concave spherical mirror with radius of curvature +18.0 cm is placed a distance of 45.0 cm to the right of the lens (Fig. P38.129). a. What is the location of the final image formed by the lensmirror combination as seen by an observer positioned to the left of the object? b. What is the magnification of the final image as seen by an observer positioned to the left of the object? c. Is the final image formed by the lensmirror combination upright or inverted? FIGURE P38.129arrow_forwardSuppose you want to use a converging lens to project the image of two trees onto a screen. As show n in Figure CQ36.9, one tree is a distance x from the lens and the other is at 2x. You adjust the screen so that the near tree is in locus. It you now want the far tree to be in focus, do you move the screen toward or away from the lens?arrow_forward
