How far must an object be away from the lens for it to focus at focal length?
An infinite distance
What’s happens to the image distance if you decrease the object distance?
The object distance increases
How can you make the image distance smaller?
Increase the object distance by moving the object further away from the lens
Calculate the power of the lens
