the focal length F of a lens made by combining two lenses of focal length U and V is given I/F=I/U+I/V
A.make V the subject of the formula.
B.find V when F=6,U=10

Respuesta :

Answer:

a). [tex]V=\frac{U.F}{U-F}[/tex]

b). V = 15 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Focal length F of a lens made by combining two lenses of different focal lengths U and V will be,

[tex]\frac{1}{F}=\frac{1}{U}+\frac{1}{V}[/tex]

A). By solving the given formula,

    [tex]\frac{1}{V}=\frac{1}{F}-\frac{1}{U}[/tex]

    [tex]\frac{1}{V}=\frac{U-F}{U.F}[/tex]

    [tex]V=\frac{U.F}{U-F}[/tex]

B). If F = 6 and U = 10 then we have to find the value of V.

    By substituting the given values in the formula,

    [tex]V=\frac{6\times 10}{10-6}[/tex]

    [tex]V=\frac{60}{4}[/tex]

    V = 15 units

    Therefore, focal length (V) of the lens = 15 units
