Answer: M = 14.3
Explanation:
Given the following :
Object distance (u) = 32cm
Focal length (f) = 30.1 cm
Magnification = image distance (v) / object distance (u)
Recall ; 1/f = 1/u + 1/v
1/30.1 = 1/32 + 1/v
1/v = 1/30.1 - 1/32
1/v = (32 - 30.1) / 963.2
1/v = 2.1 / 963.2
1/v = 0.0021802
v = 1/0.0021802
v = 458.66666 cm
Therefore, Magnification 'M' = v / u
M = 458.66666 / 32
M = 14.333333
M = 14.3
Answer:
M = -15.8
Explanation:
object distance = 32cm
focal length = 30.1 cm
To find M we first need to find di or image distance
I will use the equation: 1/f = 1/di + 1/do
By changing the equation to 1/f - 1/di = 1/do we get 0.0019725
equation with numbers plugged in:
1/30.1 - (1/32) = 0.0019725
To change 1/do to do we divide 1 by 0.0019725
You should get 506.97
Now use the equation
M = -(di/do)
M = -(506.97/32)
You should get M = -15.8
