Chapter 34: Q. 31 (page 991)

A $1.0 - c m -$ tall candle flame is $60 c m$ from a lens with a focal length of $20 c m$ . What are the image distance and the height of the flame's image?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The distance image is $S^{'} = 30 c m$ and the flames's image height is $h^{'} = 0.5 c m .$

Step by step solution

Step: 1 Finding lateral magnification:

From thin lens equation,

$\frac{1}{s} + \frac{1}{s^{鈥�}} = \frac{1}{f}$

The convex lens of focal lens is positive and concave lens is negative:the image virutal is negative and real image distance is positive.

The lateral magnification is

localid="1649225203836" $| M | = \frac{image height}{object height} = \frac{h^{鈥�}}{h} M = 鈭� \frac{s^{鈥�}}{s} .$

The candle height flame is localid="1649225208567" $h = 1.0 c m .$

The candle flame distance to the lens is localid="1649225213777" $s = 60 c m .$

The focal lens length is localid="1649225220303" $f = 20 c m .$

Step: 2 Finding image flame's distance:

By thin lens equation,

$\begin{array}{l} \frac{1}{s} + \frac{1}{s^{鈥�}} = \frac{1}{f} \\ \frac{1}{s^{鈥�}} = \frac{1}{f} 鈭� \frac{1}{s} \\ \frac{1}{s^{鈥�}} = \frac{s 鈭� f}{s f} \\ s^{鈥�} = \frac{s f}{s 鈭� f} \\ s^{鈥�} = \frac{(60 cm) 脳 (20 cm)}{60 cm 鈭� 20 cm} \\ s^{鈥�} = 30 cm . \end{array}$

Step: 3 Finding image height:

The lateral magnification lens by

$\begin{array}{l} M = 鈭� \frac{s^{鈥�}}{s} \\ M = 鈭� \frac{30 cm}{60 cm} \\ M = 鈭� 0.5 . \end{array} \begin{array}{l} | M | = \frac{h^{鈥�}}{h} \\ h^{鈥�} = h | M | \\ h^{鈥�} = (1.0 cm) (0.5) \\ h^{鈥�} = 0.5 cm . \end{array}$
