To solve the problem, we will use the lens displacement formula related to the focal length of a convex lens. The steps are as follows: ### Step 1: Understand the given data - The distance between the object and the screen (D) = 90 cm - The separation between the two positions of the lens (d) = 20 cm ### Step 2: Use the lens displacement formula The formula relating the focal length (f) of the lens to the distances is given by: ...
