The objective lens of a telescope is a symmetric glass lens with 100cmradii of curvature. The eyepiece lens is also a symmetric glass lens. What are the radii of curvature of the eyepiece lens if the telescope’s magnification is 20×?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The radii of curvature of the eyepiece lens is Reye=5cm.

Step by step solution

01

Given Information.

We have given a symmetric glass lens with100cmradii of curvature.

We need to find the radii of curvature.

02

Calculation.

As we know that:

M=20Reye=2feyefobj=R2=1002=50

Magnification is related to:

M=fobjfeyefeye=fobjMfeye=50cm20cmfeye=52cm

Here Mis magnification, fobjis the focal length of the object andfeyeis the focal length of the eye.

The radius of the eyepiece Reyeis :

Reye=2feyeReye=2×52Reye=5cm

A hydrogen discharge lamp emits light with two prominent wavelengths: 656nm(red) and 486nm(blue). The light enters

a flint-glass prism perpendicular to one face and then refracts

through the hypotenuse back into the air. The angle between

these two faces is 35°.

a. Use Figure 35.18to estimate to ±0.002the index of refraction

of flint glass at these two wavelengths.

b. What is the angle (in degrees) between the red and blue light

as it leaves the prism?
