Solution

Sure, to calculate the image distance for a convex lens, we can use the magnification formula which is:

magnification (m) = - (image distance (v) / object distance (u))

Given in the problem, magnification (m) = 2 (for real image, magnification is taken as negative) and object distance (u) = -30 cm (object distance is always negative in lens formula).

Let's substitute these values into the formula:

-2 = - (v / -30)

Solving for v (image distance), we get:

v = -2 * -30

v = 60 cm

So, the image distance is 60 cm.
