+### Statement
+
+$13.3.9.$ [Insert the problem statement]
+
+### Solution
+
+Let's define "magnification" as\
+$k = \frac{s'}{s}$ (1)\
+where $s'$ is the image distance from len and $s$ is the object distance from camera.
+The rate of change for the object-to-len's distance is\
+$\dot{s} = -v$ (2)\
+it has negative sign due to the object goes towards the camera.\
+The relation with focal distance is given by\
+$\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{s'} = \frac{1}{f}$ (3)\
+Differentiating (3) respect to time,\
+$\frac{\dot{s}}{s^2}+\frac{\dot{s'}}{s'^2} = \frac{\dot{f}}{f^2}$ (4)\
+From (1),\
+$\dot{s'} = k\dot{s}$ (5)\
+Putting (2) and (5) into (4):\
+$\frac{\dot{f}}{f^2} = -\frac{v}{s^2}\left(1+\frac{1}{k}\right)$ (6)\
+From (3), and using (1),\
+$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{s}\left(1+\frac{1}{k}\right)$ (7)\
+Substituting (7) into (6),\
+$\dot{f} = \frac{df}{dt} = \frac{-vk}{k+1}$
+the minus sign means that camera must reduce the focal distance at that rate.
