A diverging lens (f1 = -12.0cm) is located 50.0 cm to the left of a converging lens (f2 = 34.0 cm). A 2.0 cm-tall object stands to the left of the diverging lens, exactly at its focal point. Determine the distance of the final image relative to the converging lens in centimeters.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The final image relative to the converging lens is 34 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Focal length of diverging lens = -12.0 cm

Focal length of converging lens = 34.0 cm

Height of object = 2.0 cm

Distance of object = 12 cm

Because object at focal point

We need to calculate the image distance of diverging lens

Using formula of lens

[tex]\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{u}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{-12}-\dfrac{1}{-12}[/tex]

[tex]v=\infty[/tex]

The rays are parallel to the principle axis after passing from the diverging lens.

We need to calculate the image distance of converging lens

Now, object distance is ∞

Using formula of lens

[tex]\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{34}-\dfrac{1}{\infty}[/tex]

[tex]v=34[/tex]

The image distance is 34 cm right to the converging lens.

Hence, The final image relative to the converging lens is 34 cm.
