A magnifier has a magnification of 8 x. How far from the lens should an object be placed so that it’s virtual image is at the ne
larisa86 [58]

The distance of the object from the lens is 3.12 cm.

<h3>What is magnification?</h3>

Magnification is the process of of enlarging an apparent size of an object.

<h3>Object distance</h3>

The object distance is calculated using the following lens formula;

M = \frac{V}{U}

where;

  • M is the magnification
  • V is the image distance
  • U is object distance

- 8 = \frac{-25}{U} \\\\U = \frac{-25}{-8} \\\\U = 3.12 \ cm

Thus, the distance of the object from the lens is 3.12 cm.

An object will maintain a constant speed until a force acts on it true or false
Scorpion4ik [409]
<span>You do not require a force to keep something moving.  You only require a force to get it moving.  Or to stop it moving.  In your everyday experiences, something you get moving seems to come to a stop after you stop pushing it.  It is because there are forces (friction) that make it stop.  Without those forces, the object would just keep moving. So this would mean the answer would be True.</span>
