An object is positioned 18 cm in front of a thin lens. A real, inverted image is formed 27 cm on the opposite side of the lens.
(a) Determine the focal length of the lens. Show all steps in your calculation and include proper units.
(b) Specify whether the lens is converging or diverging and justify your answer using your numerical result.
(c) Calculate the numerical value of the linear magnification and describe the size and orientation of the image relative to the object.

(b) State and justify whether the lens is converging or diverging.
(c) Compute the magnification and describe the image’s relative size and orientation.
