Question
Chapter 33, Problem 16Q
To determine
The time of the Earth’s age and modern human lives on it, from the given figure.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 16Q
Solution:
The Earth was formed towards the latter half of the universe’s transparent era when the stars and galaxies were being formed. Modern humans appeared during the last section, shown in the figure close to the right end.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Compressed graphical representation of the development of the universe after the Big Bang, according to modern cosmology.
The Big Bang model describes how the universe expands with time, at very high temperature and density. It also gives an explanation for the cosmic microwave background, large scale structure and abundance of light.

Set the wavelength to the (default) 0.55 microns and a single on-axis field point at infinite object distance. Set the image distance to 200 mm. Make the first surface the stop insure that the lens is fully filled (that is, that the entrance beam has a radius of 10 mm). Use the lens-maker's equation to calculate initial glass curvatures assuming you want a symmetric, bi-convex lens with an effective focal length of 200 mm. Get this working and examine the RMS spot size using the "Text" tab of the Spot Diagram analysis tab (OpticStudio) or the Spd command of the text widnow (OSLO). You should find the lens is far from diffraction limited, with a spot size of more than 100 microns. Now let's optimize this lens. In OpticStudio, create a default merit function optimizing on spot size.Then insert one extra line at the top of the merit function. Assign the…arrow_forward
