PHYsICS!!!!!!!!!!?
Physics homework help!!!!! very important, need to get an A?
an object is placed in front of a diverging lens with a focal length of 20.0 cm. For each object distance, find the image distance and the magnification. Describe each image.
a. 40 cm
B. 20.0 cm
C. 10.0 cm
i think one equatiom might jog ur memory, like 1 over p plus 1 over f equals 1 over q or something like tht, plz help me, i need to pass physics fo this quarter, i did the 1st 6 problems, but cant get these last two. thnx very very much
Ok, it’s been a real long time so I had to pull out the formulas and this is what I came up with.
a. f = 20
O = 40
I = 40
M = -1
b. f = 20
O = 20
I = 0
M = 0
c. f = 20
O = 10
I = 20
M = -2
a. 1 / I + 1 / 40 = 1 / 20
1 / I = 1 / 20 – 1 / 40
1 / I = 1 / 40
I = 1 / .025
I = 40
M = – I / O
M = – 40 / 40
M = -1
b. 1 / I + 1 / 20 = 1 / 20
1 / I = 1 / 20 – 1 / 20
1 / I = 0
M = – I / O
M = – 0 / 20
M = 0
c. 1 / I + 1 / 10 = 1 / 20
1 / I = 1 / 20 – 1 / 10
1 / I = – 1 / 20
I = 1 / .05
I = 20
M = – I / O
M = – 20 / 10
M = – 2
I could have missed the boat entirely, but, here’s the math. Work it yourself and check.
Hope it helps!!
