The distance of the object from the lens is 3.12 cm.
What is magnification?
Magnification is the process of of enlarging an apparent size of an object.
Object distance
The object distance is calculated using the following lens formula;
[tex]M = \frac{V}{U}[/tex]
where;
- M is the magnification
- V is the image distance
- U is object distance
[tex]- 8 = \frac{-25}{U} \\\\U = \frac{-25}{-8} \\\\U = 3.12 \ cm[/tex]
Thus, the distance of the object from the lens is 3.12 cm.
