A 2.0-cm-tall object is 20cmto the left of a lens with a focal length of10cmA second lens with a focal length of 15cmis30cmto the right of the first 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 position and height of the image is given below in step.

b. The position of the image is 20cmaway to the first lens.

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) step 1: Given Information 

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

02

Part (a) step 2: Simplify

Consider :

S1=20cmf1=10cm

03

Part (b) step 1: Given information

We need to calculate the image position and height.

04

Part (b) step 2: Simplify

FindingS1'for the first lens:

1S1+1S1'=1f1S1'=f1S1S1−f1S1'=10cm20cm20cm−10cmS1'=200cm10cmS1'=20cm

Magnification for first lens is :

m1=−S1'S1=−20cm20cm=−1

For the second lens S2':

1S2+1S2'=1f2S2'=f2S2S2−f2S2'=15cm10cm10cm−15cmS2'=150cm−5cmS2'=−30cm

Magnification of the second lens is :

m2=-S'2S2=--30cm10cm=3cm

Now, total magnification is:

M=m1×m2=-1×3=-3

An astronomer is trying to observe two distant stars. The stars are marginally resolved when she looks at them through a filter that passes green light with a wavelength near 550 nm. Which of the following actions would improve the resolution? Assume that the resolution is not limited by the atmosphere.

A. Changing the filter to a different wavelength. If so, should she use a shorter or a longer wavelength?

B. Using a telescope with an objective lens of the same diameter but a different focal length. If so, should she select a shorter or a longer focal length?

C. Using a telescope with an objective lens of the same focal length but a different diameter. If so, should she select a larger or a smaller diameter?

D. Using an eyepiece with a different magnification. If so, should she select an eyepiece with more or less magnification?

The rays leaving the two-component optical system of FIGUREP35.27produce two distinct images of the1.0cm-tall object. what are the position (relative to the lens), orientation, and height of each image?

A magnifier has a magnification of 5x. How far from the lens should an object be held so that its image is seen at the near-point distance of 25cm? Assume that your is immediately behind the lens.
