(1/u) + (1/v) = 1/f
(1/78.3) + (1/v) = -1/45.9
1/v = -(1/45.9) - (1/78.3)
v = 1 / [-(1/45.9) - (1/78.3)]
Image distance, v = -28.9 cm
Height of the image = 4.56 × |v/u| = 4.56 × |-28.9/78.3| = 1.68 cm
Since v is negative, the image is virtual.
Since v is negative, the image is upright.
The answers:
How tall is the image? 1.68 cm
How far from the lens is the image? 28.9 cm
Is the image virtual or real? virtual
Is it upright or inverted? upright
BY 1/do + 1/di = 1/f
=>1/78.3 + 1/di = 1/(-45.9)
=>1/di = -1/78.3 - 1/45.9
=>di = -28.94 cm --------------Answer (ii)
By m = -di/do = hi/ho
=>hi = -di x ho/do = -(-28.94) x 4.56/78.3 = 1.69 cm -----------Answer (i)
As di is -ve =>virtual ------------Answer (iii)
As m -s +ve =>upright-------------Answer (iv)
How tall is the image? = 4.56 cm
How far from the lens is the image? = 78.3 cm
Is the image virtual or real? = it's real
Is it upright or inverted? = I think inverted
