You have a telescope that consists of two converging lenses which are placed a distance apart which is approximately equal to the sum of their focal lengths. Focal length 1 is appriximatly 5.5cm and focal length 2 is approximatly 25cm. The lens closest to the onject should have a resonably long focal length and the eyepiece lens should have a relatively short focal length to get good magnification. a. draw a scale ray diagram for a telescope using one long and one short focal length lens. b. Estimate how much larger your distance object appears through your telescope and then calculate the angular magnification.

Two panels of different materials are spaced 6m apart and at a 30-degree angle. The top panel is 2m x 1m. The top panel has an emissivity of 0.6. The bottom panel is made of a translucent material and has an absorptivity of 0.2 and a reflectivity of 0.5. a) If the top panel is kept at 100oC and the bottom panel at −50oC, how much radiation is the top panel emitting to the bottom panel? b) How much of that radiation passes through the bottom panel? c) What is the irradiation power, G?

On one side of a diverging lens of focal length 37.1 cm, you position an object of height 2.42 cm somewhere along the principal axis. The resultant image has a height of 0.97 cm. How far from the lens is the object located? 38.9 cm 55.5 cm 88.8 cm 72.2 cm
Example 2.3 Calculate the angle made by beam radiation with normal to a fiat plate collector on December 1, at 9.00 AM. solar time for a location at 28° 35' N. The collector is tilted at an angle of latitude plus 10°, with the horizontal and is pointing due south.
You can neglect radiation at the bottom of the plate; the bottom side of the plate has water flowing underneath it. Often, when dealing with liquids (rather than gases), one can neglect radiation because heat transfer due to convection is so much larger (liquids tend to have higher convection coefficient values than gases).
Two point sources of coherent light with a wavelength of 700 nm are near each other. The light from these sources is interfering in space around them. If you determine there is destructive interference between the two sources at a point 70.35 μm away from the second source, how far away from this point might the first source be? (Note that the image shown is not drawn to scale.) Source 1 74.20 μm o 77.175 um - 80.85 um ○ 80.85 μm 80.85 μm ? Source 2 70.35 μm destructive interference here
