Textbook Question

Chapter 24, Problem 38P

Figure 24-47 shows a thin plastic rod of length L = 13.5 cm and uniform charge 43.6 fC. (a) In terms of distance d, find an expression for the electric potential at point P₁. (b) Next, substitute variable x for d and find an expression for the magnitude of the component E_x of the electric field at P₁. (c) What is the direction of E_x relative to the positive direction of the x axis? (d) What is the value of E_x P₁ for x = d = 6.20 cm? (e) From the symmetry in Fig. 24-47, determine E_y at P₁.

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 )
