Answer

(a) $-2.75m$ (b) $-2.77m$

Work Step by Step

(a) We know that $f=(\frac{1}{d_{\circ}}-\frac{1}{d_i})^{-1}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $f=(\frac{1}{25-0.0200}+\frac{1}{-(2.50-0.0200)})^{-1}=-2.75m$ (b) As $f=(\frac{1}{d_{\circ}}-\frac{1}{d_i})^{-1}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $f=(\frac{1}{25-0.0100}+\frac{1}{-(2.50-0.0100)})^{-1}=-2.77m$
