Problem

An object is placed in front of convex surface of a glass piano-convex lens of thickness d = 9.0 cm. The image of that object is formed on the plane surface of the lens serving as'a screen. Find: (a) the transverse magnification if the curvature radius of the lens's convex surface is R = 2.5 cm; (b) the image illuminance if the luminance of the object is L 7700 cdim2 and the entrance aperture diameter of the lens is D = 5.0 mm; losses of light are negligible.
