d= Distance between two positions of a convex lens.

D= Distance between object and screen

 

 f=\frac{D^{2}-d^{2}}{4D}

where D is the distance between the object and the screen and d is the distance between the two positions of lenses for which sharp images of the given object are obtained on the screen.

Here        D=1m=100cm        d=60cm

f=\frac{100^{2}-60^{2}}{4\times 100}=16cm
