A converging lens with a focal length of 40cmand a diverging lens with a focal length of -40cmare 160cmapart. A 2cmtall object is 60cmin front of the converging lens.

a. Use ray tracing to find the position and height of the image. Do this accurately using a ruler or paper with a grid, then make measurements on your diagram.

b. Calculate the image position and height. Compare with your ray-tracing answers in part a.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a. The ray tracing to find the position and height of the image is given below.

b. The position of the image is120cmaway from the first lens.

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) 1:Given Information 

We need to find the position and height of the image using ray tracing.

02

Part (a) step 2:Simplify

Consider:

S1=60cmf8=40cm

03

Part (b) step 1: Given Information

We need to calculate the image position and height.

04

Part (b) step 2: Simplify

First, finding to S'1:

1S'1=1f8-1S11S'1=140cm-160cm1S'1=1120cmS'1=120cm

Now, finding the magnification of the first lens:

m1=S'1S1m1=-120cm60cm=-2

For the second lens S'2:

1S'2=1S2+1f21S'2=1+40cm+1-40cmS'2=-20cm

Next, magnification of the second lens :

m2=-S'2S2m2=--20cm40cm=+0.5

At last, total magnification of lens :

M=m1×m2=-2×0.5=-1

White light is incident onto a 30°prism at the 40°angle shown in figurep35.41. violet light emerges perpendicular to the rear face of the prism. The index of refraction of violet light in this glass is 2.0%larger than the index of refraction of red light. At what angle does red light emerges from the rear face?

To focus parallel light rays to the smallest possible spot, should you use a lens with a small f-number or a large f-number? Explain.

A camera has a circular aperture immediately behind the lens. Reducing the aperture diameter to half its initial value will

A. Make the image blurry.

B. Cut off the outer half of the image and leave the inner half unchanged.

C. Make the image less bright.

D. All the above.

Explain your choice.

A microscope with a tube length of 180 mm achieves a total magnification of 800* with a 40* objective and a 20* eyepiece. The microscope is focused for viewing with a relaxed eye. How far is the sample from the objective lens?

| Marooned on a desert island and with a lot of time on your hands, you decide to disassemble your glasses to make a crude telescope with which you can scan the horizon for rescuers. Luckily you’re farsighted, and, like most people, your two eyes have different lens prescriptions. Your left eye uses a lens of power +4.5 D, and your right eye’s lens is +3.0 D. a. Which lens should you use for the objective and which for the eyepiece? Explain.

b. What will be the magnification of your telescope?

c. How far apart should the two lenses be when you focus on distant objects?
