Chapter 34: Q. 9 (page 990)

It is 165cmfrom your eyes to your toes. You're standing200cm in front of a tall mirror. How far is it from your eyes to the image of your toes?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Distance from eyes to the image of toes,d=433mm

Step by step solution

01

Explanation by image

The incident and reflected rays are within the same plane and parallel to the surface.

The angle of incidence and reflection are the identical.胃i=胃r

02

Find Distance using given values

165cm separates your eyes from your toes.

There is 200cm between you and the mirror.

FIGURE shows a one ray from a human toes reflecting from the mirror to the person's eyes. the reflected travels along a line that passes through a degree on the backside of the mirror, according the law of reflection, 胃i=胃rtherefore, the space between the person's toe and therefore the mirror is that the same because the distance between the mirror and also the toe's image behind the mirror

Using Pythagorean theorem,

d=(165cm)2+(400cm)2

d=433cm

Optical engineers need to know the cone of acceptance of an optical fiber. This is the maximum angle that an entering light ray can make with the axis of the fiber if it is to be guided down the fiber. What is the cone of acceptance of an optical fiber for which the index of refraction of the core is 1.55 while that of the cladding is 1.45? You can model the fiber as a cylinder with a flat entrance face.

An object is 6cmin front of a converging lens with a focal length of10cm . Use ray tracing to determine the location of the image. Is the image upright or inverted?

A dentist uses a curved mirror to view the back side of teeth in the upper jaw. Suppose she wants an upright image with a magnification of 1.5 when the mirror is 1.2 cm from a tooth. Should she use a convex or a concave mirror? What focal length should it have?

A 2.0cmtall object is placed in front of a mirror. A 1.0cmtall upright image is formed behind the mirror, 150cmfrom the object. What is the focal length of the mirror?

A 1.0-cm-tall object is 60cmin front of a diverging lens that has a30cm focal length.
a Use ray tracing to find the position and height of the image. To do this accurately, use a ruler or paper with a grid. Determine the image distance and image height by making measurements on your diagram.
bCalculate the image position and height. Compare with your ray-tracing answers in part a.
