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 35, Problem 49AP

Two lenses made of kinds of glass having different indices of refraction n₁ and n₂ are cemented together to form an optical doublet. Optical doublets are often used to correct chromatic aberrations in optical devices. The first lens of a certain doublet has index of refraction n₁, one flat side, and one concave side with a radius of curvature of magnitude R. The second lens has index of refraction n₂ and two convex sides with radii of curvature also of magnitude R. Show that the doublet can be modeled as a single thin lens with a focal length described by
