Problem 99.
A) How is a good single-lens camera (one that can be "focused") able to take clear pictures of objects that are a variety
of distances from the camera?
B) How is the eye able to place clear images on the retina of objects that are a variety of distances from the eye?
C) For a fixed focus camera to take clear pictures, the object distance must satisfy a certain inequality. What is this
inequality?
D) Why does the nearpoint increase as people age?
A thick lens has the following properties:
Radius of the front surface: R₁ = 5.0 cm
Radius of the back surface: R₂ = -5.0 cm
Thickness: d = 0.5 cm
Index of refraction: n = 1.52
Consider the effective focal length of this lens (feff). What would the percentage error for the focal length be (relative to feff) if you were
to assume that this were a thin lens?

- A simple camera telephoto lens consists of two lenses. The objective lens has a focal length f1 = +40.8 cm. Precisely 36.6 cm behind this lens is a concave lens with a focal length f2 = -14.8 cm. The object to be photographed is 3.92 m in front of the objective lens. How far behind the concave lens should the film be placed?
1. What is the lateral magnification of this lens combination?
