A person whose least distance of distinct vision is 30 cm30\,\text{cm} wishes to read fine print using a simple magnifier under normal adjustment (final image at infinity). (i) What focal length of lens is required to obtain a magnifying power of 10 for this person? (ii) If the same lens is used by a person with normal vision (D=25 cmD = 25\,\text{cm}) under the same viewing condition, what magnifying power will that person experience?
