A pinhole camera is made from an 68cm -long box with a small hole in one end. If the hole is 4.2 m from a 1.3 m -tall person, how tall will the image of the person on the film be?
Problem 3.
A 1mm filament produces a 1mm × 1mm electron beam incident on
an anode disk with anode angle = 13°.The center of the focal spot is 1 m away from a detector
which is centered at the center of the focal spot on the anode disk and is 50 cm wide. Determine
the effective focal spot dimensions on the disk and the dimensions of the focal spot in the center
of the detector, at the far anode edge of the detector, and at the far cathode edge of the detector
(see figure below which is definitely not to scale).
