6. A tall tree is growing across a river from you. You would like to know the distance between yourself and the tree,as well as its height, but are unable to make the measurements directly. However, by using a mirror to form an image of the tree and then measuring the image distance and the image height, you can calculate the distance to the tree as well as its height. Suppose that this mirror produces an image of the sun, and the image is located 0.8441 m from the mirror. The same mirror is then used to produce an image of the tree. The image of the tree is 0.9701 m from the mirror. (a) How far away is the tree? (b) The image height of the tree has a magnitude of 0.17 m. How tall is the tree?

A. Magnification: Consider a simple lens, with a focal length of 3.2 cm, which is being used to create a magnified image of a point object (= a dot). This point object is located on the optic axis in object space (left side of the lens) 40.0 mm from the lens. By how much would the object be magnified under these conditions? In order to receive credit, you must show each step of your calculations. Pay particular attention to formulas, units, conversion factors, unit cancellations, and significant figures. B. Chromatic Aberration: Draw a ray tracing diagram that accurately illustrates the behavior of the lens described in Part A above if it exhibits uncorrected chromatic aberration in the imaging of the point object on the optic axis. Illustrate this with three pairs of rays (for blue, green and red wavelengths), labeling each set of rays with the name of the appropriate color. Consider the lens to be free of other aberrations. Use a millimeter scale and a straight edge to make the…
