To solve the problem of determining the magnification of the image formed by a diverging lens, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Object distance (u) = -20 cm (negative because the object is on the same side as the incoming light) - Focal length (f) = -32 cm (negative for a diverging lens) ### Step 2: Use the lens formula The lens formula is given by: ...
