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 28, Problem 39PCE

Predict/Calculate A thin layer of magnesium fluoride (n = 1.38) is used to coat a flint-glass lens (n = 1.61). (a) What thickness should the magnesium fluoride film have if the reflection of 565-nm light is to be suppressed? Assume that the light is incident at right angles to the film. (b) If it is desired to suppress the reflection of light with a higher frequency, should the coating of magnesium fluoride be made thinner or thicker? Explain.
