Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

d) -4.0

Explanation:

The magnification of a lens is given by

M=-\frac{q}{p}

where

M is the magnification

q is the distance of the image from the lens

p is the distance of the object from the lens

In this problem, we have

p = 50 cm is the distance of the object from the lens

q = 250 cm - 50 cm is the distance of the image from the lens (because the image is 250 cm from the obejct

Also, q is positive since the image is real

So, the magnification is

M=-\frac{200 cm}{50 cm}=-4.0
