Answer:
Object distance means what is the distance between pole and object. Image distance means when image is formed then the distance between pole and image is called image distance. Focal length is the distance between pole and the principal focus of the mirror.
A lens is a clear object, usually made of glass or plastic, which is used to refract, or bend light. Lenses can concentrate light rays (bring them together) or spread them out. Common examples of lenses include camera lenses, telescope lenses, eyeglasses, and magnifying glasses. Lenses are often double lenses, meaning they have two curved sides. A convex lens is rounded outward, while a concave lens curves inward. (A great way to remember this is that a concave lens creates an indent like a cave!)
The image distance can be calculated with the knowledge of object distance and focal length with the help of lens formula. In optics, the relationship between the distance of an image (i), the distance of an object (o), and the focal length (f) of the lens are given by the formula known as Lens formula. Lens formula is applicable for convex as well as concave lenses. These lenses have negligible thickness. It is an equation that relates the focal length, image distance, and object distance for a spherical mirror. It is given as,
1/i + 1/o = 1/f
i= distance of the image from the lens
o= distance of the object from the lens
f= focal length of the lens

Answer:
b) Betelgeuse would be times brighter than Sirius
c) Since Betelgeuse brightness from Earth compared to the Sun is the statement saying that it would be like a second Sun is incorrect
Explanation:
The start brightness is related to it luminosity thought the following equation:
(1)
where is the brightness,
is the star luminosity and
, the distance from the star to the point where the brightness is calculated (measured). Thus:
b) and
where
is the Sun luminosity (
) but we don't need to know this value for solving the problem.
is light years.
Finding the ratio between the two brightness we get:
c) we can do the same as in b) but we need to know the distance from the Sun to the Earth, which is . Then
Notice that since the star luminosities are given with respect to the Sun luminosity we don't need to use any value a simple states the Sun luminosity as the unit, i.e 1. From this result, it is clear that when Betelgeuse explodes it won't be like having a second Sun, it brightness will be 5 orders of magnitude smaller that our Sun brightness.
