A double convex lens has a diameter of 5 cm and zero thickness at its edges. A point object on an axis through the center of the lens produces a real image on the opposite side. Both object and image distances are 30 cm, measured from a plane bisecting the lens. The lens has a refractive index of 1.52. Using the equivalence of optical paths through the center and edge of the lens, determine the thickness of the lens at its center.
