To solve the problem of locating the image formed by a diverging lens, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Sign Convention We are given: - Object distance (u) = -20 cm (the negative sign indicates that the object is on the same side as the incoming light). - Focal length (f) = -32 cm (the negative sign indicates that it is a diverging lens). ### Step 2: Draw the Principal Axis and the Diverging Lens ...
