Homework Statement
Got some work from my dad, but one question kinda stumped me.
A short sighted person can view an object clearly only when it is between 11 cm and 19 cm from her eyes. Calculate:
1. The Focal Length of the specatacles required to give her a near point of 25 cm.
Homework Equations
I don't know what equation to use here. I usually see questions about image and object distances and object distances using the 1/u+ 1/v= 1/f equation, I've never seen one like this.
The Attempt at a Solution
I just assumed, 1/.25 + 1/infinity = 1/f
1/.25 + 0 = 1/f
1/.25 = 1/f
4 = 1/f
f = 1/4
f= .25
