) A 4.0 cm tall candle flame is 2.0 m from a wall. You happen to have a lens with a
focal length of 32 cm. How many places can you put the lens to form a well-focused
image of the candle flame on the wall? For each location, what are the height and
orientation of the image
-
s = 200 – s’
1/s + 1/s’ = 1/f
1/(200 – s’) + 1/s’ = 1/32
s’ = 40 cm
or
s’ = 160 cm
for s’ = 40 cm ⇒ s = 160 cm
h’/h = s’/s
h’/4 = 40/160
h’ = 1 cm
for s’ = 160 cm ⇒ s = 40 cm
h’/h = s’/s
h’/4 = 160/40
h’ = 16 cm
