An advanced computer sends information to its various parts via infrared light pulses traveling through silicon fibers. To acquire data from memory, the central processing unit sends a light-pulse request to the memory unit. The memory unit processes the request, then sends a data pulse back to the central processing unit. The memory unit takes to process a request. If the information has to be obtained from memory in , what is the maximum distance the memory unit can be from the central processing unit?
A lightbulb is 3.0 m from a wall. What are the focal length and the position (measured from the bulb) of a lens that will form an image on the wall that is twice the size of the lightbulb?
An object is in front of a concave mirror with a focal length of . Use ray tracing to locate the image. Is the image upright or inverted?
The mirror in FIGURE EX deflects a horizontal laser beam by . What is the angle ?

A concave mirror brings the sun's rays to a focus in front of the mirror. Suppose the mirror is submerged in a swimming pool but still pointed up at the sun. Will the sun's rays be focused nearer to, farther from, or at the same distance from the mirror? Explain.
