Answer

(a) $0.98m$ (b) $68cm$

Work Step by Step

(a) We can find the location of the image as $d_i=(\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{d_{\circ}})^{-1}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $d_i=(\frac{1}{35.0}-\frac{1}{36.3})^{-1}$ $d_i=0.98m$ The image is located to the right of the lens. (b) The height of the image can be determined as $h_i=-\frac{d_ih_{\circ}}{d_{\circ}}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $h_i=-\frac{977(2.54)}{36.3}=-68cm$ The negative sign shows that the image is inverted.
