In the figure, r=5.0 cm and index of refraction 1.5. A paperweight is constructed by slicing through the sphere along a plane that is 2.0 cm from the center of the sphere, leaving height h=3.0 cm. The paperweight is placed on a table and viewed from directly above by an observer who is distance d=10.0 cm from the tabletop (Figure). When viewed through the paperweight, how far away does the tabletop appear to be to the observer?

Object O stands on the central axis of a thin symmetric lens. For this situation, each problem in table refers to (a) the lens type, converging (C) or diverging (D), (b) the focal distance f. (c) the object distance p, (d) the image distance i, and (e) the lateral magnification m. (All distances are in centimeters) It also refers to whether (f) the image is real R or virtual (V), (g)inverted (I) or non-inverted (NI) from O, and (h) on the same side of the lens as O or on the opposite side. Fill in the missing information, including the value of m when only inequality is given. Where only a sign is missing, answer with the sign.

The figure gives the lateral magnification m of an object versus the object distance p from a spherical mirror, as the object is moved along the mirror's central axis through a range of values for p. The horizontal scale is set by ps=10.0 cm. What is the magnification of the object when the object is 24 cm from the mirror?
