Answer in units of cm.

Respuesta :

Answer:

film is at distance of 3.07 cm from lens

Explanation:

Given data

focal length = 3.06 cm

distance = 10.4 m = 1040 cm

to find out

How far must the lens

solution

we apply here lens formula that is

1/f = 1/p + 1/q

here f = 3.06 and p = 1040 so we find q

1/f = 1/p + 1/q

1/3.06 = 1/1040 + 1/q

1/ q =  0.3258

q = 3.0690 cm

so film is at distance of 3.07 cm from lens
