Question 3 Below is a scale drawing of a lens with a focal length f = 15 cm with an object located a distance do = 20 cm to the left of the lens. The circles mark the locations of the focal points, 15 cm to either side of the lens. In the next activity you will set up an object 20 cm from a 15 cm focal length lens, and locate the position at which the image is formed. Make a ray diagram for this situation, following the steps given in Activity 1.2. Use the ray diagram to determine the distance from the lens to the image that will be formed. Object
