- One positive lens (focal length = f1) and one negative lens (focal length = -f2) are placed at a distance d. – All lenses are thin lenses. Find the overall ABCD matrix of the system Find the value of d when “C” of the overall matrix is zero. ( Hint : Find d in terms of f1 and f2) (This is when the focal length of the overall system is infinity.)arrow_forwardPhotographs at a scale of S are required to cover an area X-mi square. The camera has a focal length f and focal plane dimensions of 9 × 9 in. If endlap is 60% and sidelap 30%, how many photos will be required to cover the area for the data given below? Part A: Express your answer as an integer. S=1:6800; X=10; f=152.4mmarrow_forwardTrue statements for optics Which of the following statements for single optic devices are true? Choose all that apply. It turns out that convex lenses always have a positive focal length. For real images, the image distance is negative and the object distance is positive. By convention, an inverted image has a positive image height. A magnification of -2 means the image is magnified. 0 Experiments have shown that converging optics can create virtual images. If an image has a magnification of -8, then the image is virtual. Which must be true? Using a single optic, an image with a negative image height is created. As a result, which of the following MUST be true? Choose all that apply. The image is real The image is virtual The image is inverted The image is upright The image distance is positive The image distance is negative The image has a positive magnification The image has a negative magnification The optic is converging The optic is diverging The optic has a positive focal length…arrow_forward
