An object is `5.0 m` to the left of a flat screen. A converging lens for which the focal length is `f=0.8 m` is placed between object and screen.
(a) Show that two lens positions exist that form images on the screen and deremine how far these positions are from the object?
(b) How do the two images differ from each other?

Verified by Experts

`m=(v)/(u ) `
` therefore m_1 = ((5-4))/((-4)) = -0.25 and m_2 =((5-1))/((-1)) =-4.00`
Hence, both the images are real and inverted, the first has magnification -0.25 and the second -4.00.
