From left, a large candle A, a point C, a small candle B, a double convex lens D. A line passes below the base of the A and B, through C, and through the center of D. An eye looks left and up from below the line to the right of the lens. Dotted lines pass from the top of the large candle to the dotted center of the lens. Solid lines pass from the top of the small candle to the dotted centerline of the lens and then turn and pass down and right to the eye. Refer to the diagram to the left and use the drop-down menus to identify the parts of a magnifying glass. Label A: VIRTUAL IMAGE Label B: OBJECT Label C: FOCAL POINT

double the distance = divide strength by 4

the design of a ski jumping suit involves a trade-off between giving the skiers lift to get higher jumps and ensuring the skier does not face a lot of drag before the jump itself. an expansive suit may to lift the skier higher, but at the same time, it will also increase the air resistance. higher air resistance as the skier goes down the slope limits the speed of the jump. a big suit also increases the risk of losing balance or control, especially if there's a strong gust of wind. while technologically enhanced suits a lot, clothing is not the only factor in a ski jumper’s success. gathering speed while skiing down the slope, ensuring good speed on the ramp, and maintaining good body posture and form in the air all contribute to a ski jumper's success.
