Question
A small insect is placed 4.85 cm from a +ve focal-length lens. Calculate the angular magnification
Solution
To calculate the angular magnification, we need to know the focal length of the lens and the object distance. However, the focal length is not provided in the question.
Angular magnification (m) for a lens is given by the formula:
m = 1 + (D/f)
where: D = distance of the object from the lens (in this case, 4.85 cm) f = focal length of the lens
Without the focal length, we cannot calculate the angular magnification. Please provide the focal length of the lens.
