Concept explainers

Optics is the study of light in the field of physics. It refers to the study and properties of light. Optical phenomena can be classified into three categories: ray optics, wave optics, and quantum optics. Geometrical optics, also known as ray optics, is…

Converging Lens

Converging lens, also known as a convex lens, is thinner at the upper and lower edges and thicker at the center. The edges are curved outwards. This lens can converge a beam of parallel rays of light that is coming from outside and focus it on a point on…

Plano-Convex Lens

To understand the topic well we will first break down the name of the topic, ‘Plano Convex lens’ into three separate words and look at them individually.

Lateral Magnification

In very simple terms, the same object can be viewed in enlarged versions of itself, which we call magnification. To rephrase, magnification is the ability to enlarge the image of an object without physically altering its dimensions and structure. This pr…

Textbook Question

Chapter 27, Problem 14PCE

Predict/Calculate You are taking a photograph of a horse race. A shutter speed of 125 at f/5.6 produces a properly exposed image, but the running horses give a blurred image. Your camera has f -stops of 2, 2.8, 4, 5.6, 8, 11, and 16 (a) To use the shortest possible exposure time (i.e., highest shutter speed), which f -stop should you use? (b) What is the shortest exposure time you can use and still get a properly exposed image?

a) A 1.00 cm-high object is placed 3.45 cm to the left of a converging lens of focal length 7.90 cm. A diverging lens of focal length -16.00 cm is 6.00 cm to the right of the converging lens. Find the position and height of the final image. b) position height Is the image real or virtual? O real O virtual cm ---Select--- Is the image inverted or upright? O upright O inverted cm ---Select--- ✓ What If? If an image of opposite characteristic, i.e., virtual if the image in part (a) is real and real if the image in part (a) is virtual, is to be obtained, what is the minimum distance (in cm), and in which direction, that the object must be moved from its original position? distance cm direction Hanter

A diverging lens with focal length |f = 19.5 cm produces an image with a magnification of +0.800. What are the object and image distances? (Include the sign of the value in your answers.) X object distance Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. Double check your calculations. cm image distance cm
