A quokka (a ridiculously cute small marsupial – look it up on Google) of height 30 cm stands on the ground 2 m to the left of a wall with a small pinhole at the height of 1 m above ground level. An image of the quokka appears on a tall screen 6 m to the right of the wall. Draw and upload a diagram (with labelled distances) and trace the rays from the feet and the head as they travel to the screen.

One end of the strip of a plane mirror is fixed and the other end rests on the top of the small vertical rod. The length of the plane mirror strip is 25cm. A ray of light is incident on the mirror and reflected from the mirror and forms a spot on a screen 3m away from the mirror. Now, if the top of the rod is moved upwards 0.1 mm, then what will be movement of the spot? A 0.24 cm B 3.4 cm 5 cm 4.5 cm
Thin lenses. Object O stands on the central axis of a thin symmetric lens. For this situation, each problem in the table (below) gives object distance p (centimeters), the type of lens (C stands for converging and D for diverging), and then the distance (centimeters, without proper sign) between a focal point and the lens. Find (a) the image distance i and (b) the lateral magnification m of the object, including signs. Also, determine whether the image is (c) real or virtual, (d) inverted from object O or noninverted, and (e) on the same side of the lens as object O or on the opposite side.

A 2.1-cm-tall object is 30 cm to the left of a lens with a focal length of 15 cm. A second lens with a focal length of -5 cm is 45 cm to the right of the first lens. Calculate the distance between the first image and the second lens. Calculate the image height.
A blue whale eyeball may be taken as a sphere that is about 15 cm in diameter. Assuming that it is filled with material with an index of refraction of 1.5, where would the image form for an object (in water) that is very far away? Just consider the initial image formed by refraction through the front surface. Select answer from the options below 15 cm behind the back of the eye 7.5 cm behind the front surface of the eye 15 cm behind the front surface of the eye Approximately 30 cm behind the back of the eye Approximately 50 cm behind the back of the eye

A diverging lens has a focal distance of f=0.2 cm. If an object is placed 0.1cm away, What is the image distance? Is the image real or virtual? What is the magnification?
Nemo swims 13m deep into the sea (n = 1.38). What is the apparent depth of nemo as seen by Darla in air (n = 1)?
You are in a boat watching a shark swim below you. From a measuring stick on the side of the boat you can tell it is 6 m down. How deep does its image appear to be? n=1 for air, n=1.33 for water.
A 4 cm tall light bulb is placed a distance of 35.5 cm from a diverging lens whose focal length magnitude is 12.2 cm. Determine the image distance from the lens, the image height, and the magnification. Put into words what your calculations physically represent about the image.
A fortuneteller looks through her crystal (n = 1.50) ball with a 4 cm radius centered at x = 0. An object at x = -16 cm is viewed from some positiondown the positive x-axis. Where does she see the image? Give the x-coordinate of the image position. The answer is 9.6 cm, but I can't seem to get the right answer.
You are given a convex lens X of focal length 50 mm. By using the equation and ray diagram, explain how far must an object to be placed behind the convex lens in order for the image is inverted and magnified three times. Describe how your answer change (if any), if the image had to be upright and same magnification. Now, you are given another convex lens Y with the focal length of 5 times larger than focal length of the convex lens X. Suggest an optical instrument that are using both lens and describe the characteristics of the final image constructed by the instrument. Support your answer with a ray diagram.
