Answer

$26cm$

Work Step by Step

We can find the required focal length of the lens as follows: $\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{d_{\circ}}+\frac{1}{d_i}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{\infty}+\frac{1}{d_i}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{infty}+\frac{1}{26cm}$ $\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{26cm}$ $\implies f=26cm$
