Chapter 24, Problem 24.69P
DATA Your electronics company has several identical capacitors with capacitance C1 and several others with capacitance C2. You must determine the values of C1 and C2 but don t have access to C1 and C2 individually. Instead, you have a network with C1 and C2 connected in series and a network with C1 and C2 connected in parallel. You have a 200.0-V battery and instrumentation that measures the total energy supplied by the battery when it is connected to the network. When the parallel combination is connected to the battery, 0.180 J of energy is stored in the network. When the series combination is connected, 0.0400 J of energy is stored. You are told that C1 is greater than C2. (a) Calculate C1 and C2. (b) For the series combination, does C1 or C2 store more charge, or are the values equal? Does C1 or C2 store more energy, or are the values equal? (c) Repeat part (b) for the parallel combination.

Paraxial design of a field flattener. Imagine your optical system has Petzal curvature of the field with radius
p. In Module 1 of Course 1, a homework problem asked you to derive the paraxial focus shift along the axis
when a slab of glass was inserted in a converging cone of rays. Find or re-derive that result, then use it to
calculate the paraxial radius of curvature of a field flattener of refractive index n that will correct the observed
Petzval. Assume that the side of the flattener facing the image plane is plano. What is the required radius of
the plano-convex field flattener? (p written as rho )

Set the wavelength to the (default) 0.55 microns and a single on-axis field point at infinite object distance. Set the image distance to 200 mm. Make the first surface the stop insure that the lens is fully filled (that is, that the entrance beam has a radius of 10 mm). Use the lens-maker's equation to calculate initial glass curvatures assuming you want a symmetric, bi-convex lens with an effective focal length of 200 mm. Get this working and examine the RMS spot size using the "Text" tab of the Spot Diagram analysis tab (OpticStudio) or the Spd command of the text widnow (OSLO). You should find the lens is far from diffraction limited, with a spot size of more than 100 microns. Now let's optimize this lens.
