A24 cm candle is placed 6 m in front of a thin diverging lens with a focal length magnitude of 3 m. find the image's height and classify it as real or virtual, upright or inverted, enlarged or reduced.

Image is virtual and formed on the same side as the object. 2 m from the lens.

The size of the image is 7.97 cm

Image is upright as the magnification is positive and smaller than the object.

Explanation:

u = Object distance =  6 m

v = Image distance

f = Focal length = -3 m (concave lens)

= Object height = 24 cm

Lens Equation

Image is virtual and formed on the same side as the object. 2 m from the lens.

Magnification

The size of the image is 7.97 cm

Image is upright as the magnification is positive and smaller than the object.

the working equation for the angular size is the product of the physical size and 360 degrees divided by the product of two pi and distance from earth. the minimum size would be 0.559 degrees while the maximum size would be 0.49 degrees. 

your answer is, orbit around the nucleus
