If the focal length of a camera is 20cm, the distance from the film at which the lens must be set to produce a sharp image of 100cm away is

A
17cm
B
20cm
C
25cm
D
100cm
correct option: a

F = 20cm

  V = 100cm

  U = ?

  \(\frac{1}{U}\) + \(\frac{1}{V}\) = \(\frac{1}{F}\)

\(\frac{1}{20}\) + \(\frac{1}{100}\) = \(\frac{1}{F}\)

  5 + \(\frac{1}{100}\) = \(\frac{1}{F}\)

  F = \(\frac{100}{6}\)

  = 16.7cm

  = 17cm
