Yang can focus on objects away with a relaxed eye. With full accommodation, she can focus on objects away. After her eyesight is corrected for distance vision, what will her near point be while wearing her glasses?
High-power lasers are used to cut and weld materials by focusing the laser beam to a very small spot. This is like using a magnifying lens to focus the sun light to a small spot that can burn things. As an engineer you have designed a laser cutting device in which the material to be cut is placed behind the lens. you have selected a high-power laser with a wavelength of
your calculation indicates that the laser must be focused to a spot in order to have sufficient power to make the cut. what is the minimum diameter of lens you must install?
Your task in physics laboratory is to make a microscope from two lenses. One lens has a focal length of 2.0 cm, the other 1.0 cm. You plan to use the more powerful lens as the objective, and you want the eyepiece to be 16 cm from the objective.
a. For viewing with a relaxed eye, how far should the sample be from the objective lens?
b. What is the magnification of your microscope?
A narrow beam of white light is incident on a sheet of quartz. The beam disperses in the quartz, with red light traveling at an angle of with respect to the normal and violet light traveling at . The index of refraction of quartz for red light is . What is the index of refraction of quartz for violet light?
The Hubble Space Telescope has a mirror diameter of 2.4 m. Suppose the telescope is used to photograph stars near the center of our galaxy, 30,000 light years away, using red light with a wavelength of 650 nm.
a. What’s the distance (in km) between two stars that are marginally resolved? The resolution of a reflecting telescope is calculated exactly the same as for a refracting telescope.
b. For comparison, what is this distance as a multiple of the distance of Jupiter from the sun?
