Chapter 35, Problem 24EAP

A scientist needs to focus a helium-neon laser beam ( λ = 633 nm) to a 10- μ m-diameter spot 8.0 cm behind a lens.

A biconvex lens is made of glass of refractive index 1.50. The radii of curvature of the surfaces are 25.0 cm and 10.0 cm.  a. What is the focal length of the lens? What is the focal length of the lens when placed in water of refractive index 1.33?
Suppose we model the cornea of the human eye as a thin lens with a focal length of 2.00 cm. We also assume the material to have a refractive index of 1.38. If its front surface has a radius of curvature of +5.00 mm, what is the radius of curvature of the backside of the cornea?A. –6.16 mmB. –0.90 mmC. +3.02 mmD. +14.6 mm
nearsighted man cannot see clearly objects farther than 30.0 cm from their eyes. To prescribe them corrective lenses in the form of glasses that will sit 1.90 cm from their eyes. The corrective lenses will be planoconcave and made of polycarbonate (n = 1.586). a. What is the focal length of the corrective lens?  b. What is the radius of curvature of the concave side of the lens?  A 4.00 cm tall object is placed 66.0 cm in front of the corrective lens. c. Where will the image appear?  d. What is the height of the image?  e. Is the image upright or inverted? Explain how you know.  f. Draw a ray diagram
