Answer:
v=150
m=2
Explanation:
f=50
u=-75
1/f = 1/v - 1/u
1/50 = 1/v - 1/-75
1/50 + 1/-75 = 1/v
1/50 - 1/75 = 1/v
3-2/150 = 1/v
1/150 = 1/v
Therefore,, v = 150cm...
m= -v/u
m= -150/-75
m = 2.
Hope this helps...

The image distance is 30 cm and the magnification produced by the lens is 0.4
It is given that the focal length (f) of the convex lens is 50 cm.
The object is kept at a distance of (u) 75m from the lens.
According to the Lens formula, we know,
1/f = 1/v - 1/u
⇒ 1/v = 1/f + 1/u
⇒ 1/v = 1/50 + 1/75
⇒ 1/v = 1/30
⇒ v = 30cm
We know, Magnification is given by
M = v/u
Substituting the values, we get
M = 30/75
= 0.4
