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 34, Problem 34.106CP

An Object at an Angle. A 16.0-cm-long pencil is placed at a 45.0° angle, with its center 15.0 cm above the optic axis and 45.0 cm from a lens with a 20.0-cm focal length as shown in Fig. P34.106. (Note that the figure is not drawn to scale.) Assume that the diameter of the lens is large enough for the paraxial approximation to be valid. (a) Where is the image of the pencil? (Give the location of the images of the points A, B, and C on the object, which are located at the eraser, point, and center of the pencil, respectively.) (b) What is the length of the image (that is, the distance between the images of points A and B)? (c) Show the orientation of the image in a sketch.

A 16.0-cm-long pencil is placed at a 45.0° angle, with its center 15.0 cm above the optic axis and 45.0 cm from a lens with a 20.0 cm focal length as shown in Fig. P34.106. (Note that the figure is not drawn to scale.) Assume that the diameter of the lens is large enough for the paraxial approximation to be valid. (a) Where is the image of the pencil? (Give the location of the images of the points A, B, and C on the object, which are located at the eraser, point, and center of the pencil, respectively.) (b) What is the length of the image (that is, the distance between the images of points A and B)? (c) Show the orientation of the image in a sketch.

A lens located in the y-z plane at x = 0 forms an image of an arrow at x = x₂ = 101.3 cm. The tip of the object arrow is located at (x,y) = (x₁, Y₁1) = (-49.9 cm, 5.32 cm). The index of refraction of the lens is n = 1.49. 1) What is flens, the focal length of the lens? If the lens is converging flens is positive. It the lens is diverging, flens is negative. cm Submit 2) What is y₂, the y-coordinate of the image of the tip of the arrow? cm Submit Virtual and upright Virtual and inverted (X₁,Y₁) 3) The lens is a plano-convex lens. What is Rens, the radius of curvature of the convex side of the lens? cm Submit X2 4) The object arrow is now moved to x = x1,new = -17.4 cm. What is X2,new, the new x-coordinate of the image of the arrow? cm Submit 5) Is the new image of the arrow real or virtual? Is it upright or inverted? O Real and upright Real and inverted X + + + +

Two lenses are mounted d = 39 cm apart on an optical bench. The focal length of the first lens is f1 = 9.8 cm and that of the second lens is f2 = 3.1 cm. An object of height ho = 4.9 cm is placed at a distance of do = 24 cm in front of the first lens. Now consider the two-lens system and the final image it forms, i.e., the image created by the second lens. What is the distance, in centimeters, between the object and its final image? D =?
