We place a 3.4 cm-tall circular object in front of an unknown lens and observe a 2.4 cm-tall circular image on a screen. We move the object either towards or away from the lens. The circular image moves 2.2 cm either towards or away from the lens; the new image is 5.7 cm tall.
a) Is the lens converging or diverging? Do you move the object towards or away from the lens? Does the image move towards or away from the lens? Explain!
b) Use ray tracing to find the focal length of the lens and the location of the lens! use empty next page!
c) Use ray tracing to find the two locations of the object that produce the two images. How much do we move the object?
