Chapter 5: Q38E (page 1153)

A converging lens with a focal length of 12.0 cmforms a virtual image 8.00 mmtall, 17.0 cmto the right of the lens. Determine the position and size of the object. Is the image erect or inverted? Are the object and image on the same side or opposite sides of the lens? Draw a principal-ray diagram for this situation.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The position and size of the object is 7 cm and 3.31 mm .

The image formed is erect and virtual, thus, the object and the image are in the same side of the lens.

Step by step solution

01

Determine the position and size of the object

Now, here as the image is virtual, thus s' is negative

Use the object- image relationship

1s+1s'=1f

Substitute the given values to find the required answer

s=fs's'-fs=12cm-17cm-17cm-12cm鈬�s=7cm

Now, use the formula of lateral magnification for a thin less

m=-s's=y'ym=-s's=--17cm7cm=+2.41667y=y'm=8mm2.41667=3.31mm

Thus, the image is virtual, so the object and the image are in the same side of the lens.

Therefore, the required diagram is

Ordinary photographic film reverses black and white, in the sense that the most brightly illuminated areas become blackest upon development (hence the term negative). Suppose a hologram negative is viewed directly, without making a positive transparency. How will the resulting images differ from those obtained with the positive? Explain.

Two small stereo speakers A and B that are 1.40 m apart are sending out sound of wavelength 34 cm in all directions and all in phase. A person at point P starts out equidistant from both speakers and walks so that he is always 1.50 m from speaker B (Fig. E35.1). For what values of x will the sound this person hears be (a) maximally reinforced, (b) cancelled? Limit your solution to the cases where x 鈮�1.50 m.

Light of wavelength 位and frequency v passes through a single slit of width a. The diffraction pattern is observed on a screen a distance x from the slit. Which of the following will decrease the width of the central maximum? (a) Decrease the slit width; (b) decrease the frequency v of the light; (c) decrease the wavelength 位of the light; (d) decrease the distance of the screen from the slit. In each case justify your answer.

With which color of light can the Hubble Space Telescope see finer detail in a distant astronomical object: red, blue, or ultraviolet? Explain your answer.

A rainbow ordinarily shows a range of colors. But if the water droplets that form the rainbow are small enough, the rainbow will appear white. Explain why, using diffraction ideas. How small do you think the raindrops would have to be for this to occur?
