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…

Textbook Question

Chapter 34, Problem 34.78P

Autocollimation. You place an object alongside a white screen, and a plane mirror is 60.0 cm to the right of the object and the screen, with the surface of the mirror tilted slightly from the perpendicular to the line from object to mirror. You then place a converging lens between the object and the mirror. Light from the object passes through the lens, reflects from the mirror, and passes back through the lens; the image is projected onto the screen. You adjust the distance of the lens from the object until a sharp image of the object is focused on the screen. The lens is then 22.0 cm from the object. Because the screen is alongside the object, the distance from object to lens is the same as the distance from screen to lens. (a) Draw a sketch that shows the locations of the object, lens, plane mirror, and screen. (b) What is the focal length of the lens?

A ball is thrown with an initial speed v, at an angle 6, with the horizontal. The horizontal range of the ball is R, and the ball reaches a maximum height R/4. In terms of R and g, find the following. (a) the time interval during which the ball is in motion 2R (b) the ball's speed at the peak of its path v= Rg 2 √ sin 26, V 3 (c) the initial vertical component of its velocity Rg sin ei sin 20 (d) its initial speed Rg √ sin 20 × (e) the angle 6, expressed in terms of arctan of a fraction. 1 (f) Suppose the ball is thrown at the same initial speed found in (d) but at the angle appropriate for reaching the greatest height that it can. Find this height. hmax R2 (g) Suppose the ball is thrown at the same initial speed but at the angle for greatest possible range. Find this maximum horizontal range. Xmax R√3 2

An outfielder throws a baseball to his catcher in an attempt to throw out a runner at home plate. The ball bounces once before reaching the catcher. Assume the angle at which the bounced ball leaves the ground is the same as the angle at which the outfielder threw it as shown in the figure, but that the ball's speed after the bounce is one-half of what it was before the bounce. 8 (a) Assuming the ball is always thrown with the same initial speed, at what angle & should the fielder throw the ball to make it go the same distance D with one bounce (blue path) as a ball thrown upward at 35.0° with no bounce (green path)? 24 (b) Determine the ratio of the time interval for the one-bounce throw to the flight time for the no-bounce throw. Cone-bounce no-bounce 0.940
