Calculate the magnification produced by the lens - AQA - GCSE Physics - Question 3 - 2018 - Paper 1

To calculate the magnification, we use the formula:

$$ext{magnification} = \frac{\text{image height}}{\text{object height}}$$

First, ensure you have the values for both the image height and object height. Let's assume:

• Image Height = 10 cm
• Object Height = 5 cm

Substituting these values into the formula gives:

$$ext{magnification} = \frac{10 \text{ cm}}{5 \text{ cm}} = 2$$

Thus, the magnification produced by the lens is 2.
