Question
A microscope objective with a magnification of 15 is used in a microscope with a magnification of 51. Find the focal length of the ocular if the ocular's image is formed at the eye's near point, 23 cm from the eye. Neglect the distance between the eye and the ocular.

- A microscope has an objective lens with a focal length of 16.22 mm and an eyepiece with a focal length of 9.06 mm. With the length of the barrel set at 33.0 cm, the diameter of a red blood cell's image subtends an angle of 1.43 mrad with the eye. If the final image distance is 33.0 cm from the eyepiece, what is the actual diameter of the red blood cell? Hint: To solve this equation, go back to basics and use the thin-lens equation. ?marrow_forwardA student with normal sight is surprised to see a possum scampering up the rear wall in the Lyle theatre. The possum is 30.0 cm long and the wall is 2.3 m away. The student's eyeballs have a diameter of 2.4 cm. How big is the image of the possum on the student's retina?

The slide-to-screen distance is 3.04 m. (Enter your answers to at least one decimal place.) (a) Determine the focal length of the projection lens. mm (b) How far from the slide should the lens of the projector be placed to form the image on the screen? mmarrow_forward
- A microscope objective with a magnification of 20 is used in a microscope with a magnification of 56. Find the focal length of the ocular if the ocular's image is formed at the eye's near point, 27 cm from the eye. Neglect the distance between the eye and the ocular.arrow_forwardConsider a converging lens with focal length 8.94 cm. The distance between an object and a real image of the object created by the lens is 41.5 cm. Find the distance between the object and the lens if the lens is closer to the object than it is to the image. Answer in cm.arrow_forwardAn object of 1 cm tall is placed 3cm in front of a converging lens of focal length of 2 cm. (a) Use ray tracing to find the image. (b) Use the lens equation to find the image distance and compare it to your ray tracing and find the percentage error.arrow_forward
- The focal length of the lens in your eye is about 1.5 cm and the maximum size of an image that can be perceived on your retina is 5 cm (the retina is the part of your eye which acts as the screen). (a) If the object is 100 cm from your eye, where is the image produced? (b) If you want to see all of the object from this distance, what is its maximum size?arrow_forwardThe projection lens in a certain slide projector is a single thin lens. A slide 23.0 mm high is to be projected so that its image fills a screen 1.90 m high. The slide-to-screen distance is 3.06 m. (Enter your answers to at least one decimal place.) (a) Determine the focal length of the projection lens. mm(b) How far from the slide should the lens of the projector be placed to form the image on the screen? mmarrow_forwardIn a compound microscope, the objective has a focal length of 1.0 cm, the eyepiece has a focal length of 2.0 cm, and the tube length is 25 cm.
