Chapter 23 Problem 90GP

Question

A small object is \(25.0 \mathrm{~cm}\) from a diverging lens as shown in Fig. 23–68. A converging lens with a focal length of \(12.0 \mathrm{~cm} \text { is } 30.0 \mathrm{~cm}\) to the right of the diverging lens. The two-lens system forms a real inverted image \(17.0 \mathrm{~cm}\) to the right of the converging lens. What is the focal length of the diverging lens?

Solution

Step 1 of 3)

The first step in solving 23 problem number trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A small object is \(25.0 \mathrm{~cm}\) from a diverging lens as shown in Fig. 23–68. A converging lens with a focal length of \(12.0 \mathrm{~cm} \text { is } 30.0 \mathrm{~cm}\) to the right of the diverging lens. The two-lens system forms a real inverted image \(17.0 \mathrm{~cm}\) to the right of the converging lens. What is the focal length of the diverging lens?FIGURE 23–68 Problem 90.
From the textbook chapter Light: Geometric Optics you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
