Ray Optics

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…

Chapter 27, Problem 46PCE

Two lenses, with f₁ = +20.0 cm and f₂ = +30.0 cm, are placed on the x axis, as shown in Figure 27-28 An object is fixed 50 0 cm to the left of lens 1, and lens 2 is a variable distance x to the right of lens 1. Find the lateral magnification and location of the final image relative to lens 2 for the following cases: (a) x = 115 cm; (b) x = 30.0 cm; (c) x = 0 (d) Show that your result for part (c) agrees with the relation for the effective focal length of two lenses in contact, 1/f_eff = 1.

Two blocks, A and B (with mass 45 kg and 120 kg, respectively), are connected by a string, as shown in the figure below. The pulley is frictionless and of negligible mass. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block A and the incline is μk = 0.26. Determine the change in the kinetic energy of block A as it moves from to ①, a distance of 15 m up the incline (and block B drops downward a distance of 15 m) if the system starts from rest. ] 37° A © B

A skateboarder with his board can be modeled as a particle of mass 80.0 kg, located at his center of mass. As shown in the figure below, the skateboarder starts from rest in a crouching position at one lip of a half-pipe (point). On his descent, the skateboarder moves without friction so that his center of mass moves through one quarter of a circle of radius 6.20 m. i (a) Find his speed at the bottom of the half-pipe (point Ⓡ). m/s (b) Immediately after passing point Ⓑ, he stands up and raises his arms, lifting his center of mass and essentially "pumping" energy into the system. Next, the skateboarder glides upward with his center of mass moving in a quarter circle of radius 5.71 m, reaching point D. As he passes through point ①, the speed of the skateboarder is 5.37 m/s. How much chemical potential energy in the body of the skateboarder was converted to mechanical energy when he stood up at point Ⓑ? ] (c) How high above point ① does he rise? m

A 31.0-kg child on a 3.00-m-long swing is released from rest when the ropes of the swing make an angle of 29.0° with the vertical. (a) Neglecting friction, find the child's speed at the lowest position. m/s (b) If the actual speed of the child at the lowest position is 2.40 m/s, what is the mechanical energy lost due to friction? ]
