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 50PCE

A magnifying glass is a single convex lens with a focal length of f = +14 0 cm. (a) What is the angular magnification when this Ions forms a (virtual) image at −∞? How far from the object should the lens be held? (b) What is the angular magnification when this lens forms a (virtual) image at the person’s near point (assumed to be 25 cm)? How far from the object should the lens be held in this case?

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a helically-shaped bacterium that is usually found in the stomach. It burrows through the gastric mucous lining to establish an infection in the stomach's epithelial cells (see photo). Approximately 90% of the people infected with H. pylori will never experience symptoms. Others may develop peptic ulcers and show symptoms of chronic gastritis. The method of motility of H. pylori is a prokaryotic flagellum attached to the back of the bacterium that rigidly rotates like a propeller on a ship. The flagellum is composed of proteins and is approximately 40.0 nm in diameter and can reach rotation speeds as high as 1.50 x 103 rpm. If the speed of the bacterium is 10.0 μm/s, how far has it moved in the time it takes the flagellum to rotate through an angular displacement of 5.00 * 10² rad?
