A camera lens focuses on an object
75.0 cm from the lens. The image
forms 3.50 cm behind the lens.
What is the magnification of the
image? PLS HELP

Respuesta :

Answer:

m = 0.047

Explanation:

We have given that, a camera lens focuses on an object  75 cm from the lens, it means that the object distance is 75 cm

The image  forms 3.50 cm behind the lens. It means that the image distance is 3.5 cm.

It is required to find the magnification of the image. The ratio of image distance to the object distance is called magnification. So,

[tex]m=\dfrac{v}{u}\\\\m=\dfrac{3.5}{75}\\\\m=0.047[/tex]

So, the magnification of the image is 0.047

Answer:

M = -0.047

Explanation:

if you got 0.047 you used the wrong equation -> m = image height/object height

the correct equation is:

M = image height/object height = -(image distance/object distance)
