A monkey starts chucking polished stainless bocce balls at you. The bocce balls are 6cm in radius. Where does your image form as a function of bocce balls distance and what is the size of your image at this distance?

This is obviously a homework question and I'm not looking for a direct answer, just some help through it or at least where to start.

Data: since convex, $r$=-6cm & thus, $f$=-3cm $$\frac{1}f = \frac{1}d_o + \frac{1}d_i$$

Hi Jesse - this is a site for conceptual questions about physics, not general homework help. If you can edit your question to ask about the specific physics concept that is giving you trouble, I'll be happy to reopen it. See our FAQ and homework policy for more information. – David Zaslavsky♦ Nov 12 '12 at 7:36
