You produce an image of the Sun on a screen, using a thin lens whose focal length is 20cm. What is the diameter of the image? (See Appendix C for needed data on the Sun.)

Short Answer

Expert verified

Thediameter of the imageis 1.8610-3m.

Step by step solution

01

Listing the given quantities

  • Focal length

f=20cm=0.2m

  • Object distance,p=1.51011m
  • Radius of the curvature of the sun,rs=6.96108m
02

Understanding the concepts of magnification

We know the relation between the magnitude of magnification, image distance and object distance. We can write the relation for the magnitude of magnification, image diameter and object diameter. Using these relations, we can find the diameter of the image.

The expression for the magnification is given by,

m=-ipm=dids

Herei is the image distance, p is the object distance, m is the magnification.


03

Calculations of the diameter of the image

From the expression of the magnification,

m=-ip

Considering the magnitude of magnification,

m=ip(1)

The magnitude of magnification in terms of the diameter can be written as

m=dids(2)

From equations 1 and 2,

dids=ip

Now, since the rays are coming from infinity, they are parallel to the principal axis.

Therefore, we can say that after the refraction they will meet at the focus of the lens.

So,

i = f

Therefore,

dids=fpdi=dsfp

From Appendix C, we have,

p=1.51011mrs=6.96108mdi=26.961080.21.51011=1.8610-3m

Therefore the diameter of the image is 1.8610-3m.

Figure 34-47a shows the basic structure of the human eye. Light refracts into the eye through the cornea and is then further redirected by a lens whose shape (and thus ability to focus the light) is controlled by muscles. We can treat the cornea and eye lens as a single effective thin lens (Fig. 34-47b). A 鈥渘ormal鈥 eye can focus parallel light rays from a distant object O to a point on the retina at the back of the eye, where the processing of the visual information begins. As an object is brought close to the eye, however, the muscles must change the shape of the lens so that rays form an inverted real image on the retina (Fig. 34-47c). (a) Suppose that for the parallel rays of Figs. 34-47a and b, the focal length fof the effective thin lens of the eye is 2.50 cm. For an object at distance p = 40 cm, what focal length f of the effective lens is required for the object to be seen clearly? (b) Must the eye muscles increase or decrease the radii of curvature of the eye lens to give focal length f?

50 through 57 55, 57 53 Thin lenses. Object Ostands on the central axis of a thin symmetric lens. For this situation, each problem in Table 34-6 gives object distance p (centimeters), the type of lens (C stands for converging and D for diverging), and then the distance (centimeters, without proper sign) between a focal point and the lens. Find (a) the image distance iand (b) the lateral magnification m of the object, including signs. Also, determine whether the image is (c) real (R) or virtual (V) , (d) inverted (I)from object O or non inverted (NI) , and (e) on the same side of the lens as object Oor on the opposite side.

A double-convex lens is to be made of glass with an index of refraction of 1.5.One surface is to have twice the radius of curvature of the other and the focal length is to be 60mm. What is the (a) smaller and (b) larger radius?

A glass sphere has radius r=-50 cmand index of refraction n1=1.6paperweight is constructed by slicing through the sphere along a plane that is 2.0 cmfrom the center of the sphere, leaving height p = h = 3.0 cm. The paperweight is placed on a table and viewed from directly above by an observer who is distance d=8.0 cmfrom the tabletop (Fig. 34-39). When viewed through the paperweight, how far away does the tabletop appear to be to the observer?

In Fig. 34-26, stick figure Ostands in front of a spherical mirrorthat is mounted within the boxed region;the central axis through themirror is shown. The four stick figures I1to I4suggest general locationsand orientations for the images that might be produced by themirror. (The figures are onlysketched in; neither their heightsnor their distances from the mirror are drawn to scale.) (a) Whichof the stick figures could not possibly represent images? Of thepossible images, (b) which would be due to a concave mirror, (c)which would be due to a convex mirror, (d) which would be virtual,and (e) which would involve negative magnification?
