A converging lens of unknown focal length forms a real image of a candle on a screen. The distance between the candle (object) and the screen (image) is \(120\,\text{cm}\). When the lens is moved \(20\,\text{cm}\) closer to the candle, the image distance becomes \(40\,\text{cm}\). Determine the focal length of the lens (to the nearest centimetre) and the original object distance (to the nearest centimetre).

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. f = 25 cm, original object distance = 85 cm
B. f = 30 cm, original object distance = 80 cm
C. f = 25 cm, original object distance = 70 cm
D. f = 20 cm, original object distance = 90 cm
Correct Answer
A
Correct Option:
f = 25 cm, original object distance = 85 cm
