Step-by-Step Analysis
We begin by restating what is being asked and what the provided data and answer set look like. Question: An object is placed 15.3 cm in front of a concave diverging lens with a focal length of -8.5 cm. Determine the image distance, magnification, and 3 image characteristics. Be sure to check FIVE boxes. Answer options (full list): -19.3 cm, Reduced, -5.5 cm, Upright, Real, 5.5 cm, 1.3x, Inverted, Enlarged, Virtual, 0.36x, -1.3x, 19.13 cm, -0.36x Given correct answers (from the provided data): Reduced, -5.5 cm, Upright, Virtual, 0.36x Now, I’ll analyze each option to distinguish which ones align with the stated correct set and which do not. Option by option analysis: -19.3 cm: This value is a possible candidate for a image distance in lens problems, but the provided answer key does not include it among the five chosen items. Since the five checked items should match the key, this option would be considered incorrect in the context of the given key, even though it could come from a rough calculation depending on sign conventions. Therefore: incorrect under the provided key. - Reduced: The term “reduced” describes a mag......Login to view full explanation
