Object Distance in Concave Lens Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Object Distance of Concave Lens = (Image Distance*Focal Length of Concave Lens)/(Image Distance-Focal Length of Concave Lens)
u_concave = (v*f_{concave lens})/(v-f_{concave lens})
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Object Distance of Concave Lens - (Measured in Meter) - The Object Distance of Concave Lens refers to the distance from the object (the source of light or the object being observed) to the lens itself.
Image Distance - (Measured in Meter) - Image Distance is the distance between the image sensor and the lens in an optical system, affecting the magnification and quality of the resulting image.
Focal Length of Concave Lens - (Measured in Meter) - Focal Length of Concave Lens is the distance between the center of the lens and the focal point, which is the point where parallel rays of light converge after passing through the lens.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Image Distance: 0.27 Meter --> 0.27 Meter No Conversion Required
Focal Length of Concave Lens: 0.2 Meter --> 0.2 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

u_concave = (v*f_{concave lens})/(v-f_{concave lens}) --> (0.27*0.2)/(0.27-0.2)

Evaluating ... ...

u_concave = 0.771428571428571

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.771428571428571 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.771428571428571 ≈ 0.771429 Meter <-- Object Distance of Concave Lens
