how far in front of the magnifier should an object be placed if the image is formed at the observer's near point, a distance of 25.0 cm in front of her eye?

Respuesta :

An object should be placed  6.343cm in front of the magnifier if the image is formed at the observer's near point, a distance of 25.0 cm in front of her eye.

We use lens formula which is given by

1/v-1/u=1/f

where v is the distance of the image from the lens, u is the distance of the object from the lens and f is the focal length of the lens.

We have distance of image from lens(v) as= - 25cm(since image is forming on left side of lens)

Also, we have focal length of lens as 8.50cm

So, putting this on above formula

=>1/(-25)-1/u=1/8.50

=>1/u=(1/8.50)+(1/25)

=>1/u=(25+8.50)/(25×8.50)

=>u=(25×8.50)/33.50

=>u= 6.343cm

Hence, an object should be placed from the magnifier at a distance of 6.343cm.
