A 15cm-focal-length converging lens is 20cmto the right of a 7.0cm-focal-length converging lens. A 1.0cm-tall object is distance L to the left of the first lens.

a. For what value of L is the final image of this two-lens system halfway between the two lenses?

b. What are the height and orientation of the final image?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a. Value of L is L=14cm.

b. The height and orientation of the final image is M=-1.7cm.

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) Step 1: Given Information.

We need to find out the object is distance L of the first lens.

02

Part (a) Step 2: Calculation.

Since:

f1=7cmf2=15cm

Here, f1and f2is the focal length of first and second lens respectively.

Firstly, Let us find the initial position of the object for the second lens:

role="math" localid="1650112585802" 1S1+1S2'=1f21S21=1f2-1S21S2'=115-1-101S2'=16S2'=6cm→realimage

Here, S2and f2is distance of the object from the lens and the focal length of the second lens respectively.

03

Part (b) Step 1: Given Information.

We need to find the height and orientation of the final image.

04

Part (b) Step 2: Calculation.

Let us find Magnification:

M=M1M2M=-S1'S1-S1'S2M=S1'S2'S1S2M=(14)(-10)(14)(6)M=1.7cm

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?

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’s 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 5.0 cm behind the lens. You have selected a high-power laser with a wavelength of 1.06 mm. Your calculations indicate that the laser must be focused to a 5.0@mm@diameter spot in order to have sufficient power to make the cut. What is the minimum diameter of the lens you must install?

A common optical instrument in a laser laboratory is a beam expander. One type of beam expander is shown in FIGURE P 35.29. The parallel rays of a laser beam of width w1 enter from the left.

a. For what lens spacing d does a parallel laser beam exit from the right?

b. What is the width w2 of the exiting laser beam?

Your task in physics laboratory is to make a microscope from two lenses. one lens has a focal length of 2.0cm,the other objective, and you want the eyepiece to be 16cmfrom 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?

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 +4.5Dand your right eye’s lens is +3.0D. 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?
