Aconcave lens forms a virtual image 0.4 times the size of the object. the distance between object and image is 5.3 cm. find the focal length of the lens. answer in units of cm.

The focal length of the lens is -5.88 cm.

Explanation:

We know that magnification in case of lenses is given by

where

'v' is the position of image

'u' is the position of the object

Since it is given that m = 0.4 thus we can write

Now the distance between the object and the image in case of concave lens is given by

Now by lens formula the focal length of the lens is given by

attach the statements so i can answer : )

the answer is f1 and d2 because if you put equal force on those two points the beam would balance trust me on this
