A boy is trying to start a fire by focusing sunlight on a piece of paper using an equiconvex lens of focal length \(10\) cm. The diameter of the sun is \(1.39\times 10^9~\text{m}\) and its mean distance from the earth is \(1.5\times 10^{11}~\text{m}.\) What is the diameter of the sun's image on the paper?
1. \( 9.2 \times 10^{-4}~\text{m} \)
2. \(6.5 \times 10^{-4}~\text{m} \)
3. \(6.5 \times 10^{-5}~\text{m} \)
4. \( 12.4 \times 10^{-4}~\text{m} \)
