Give the position of the screen (xS) that shows the focused image, for these numbers:

The cornea of the eye has a radius of curvature of approximately 0.50 cm, and the aqueous humor behind it has an index of refraction of 1.35. The thickness of the cornea itself is small enough that we shall neglect it. The depth of a typical human eye is around 25 mm. (a) What would have to be the radius of curvature of the cornea so that it alone would focus the image of a distant mountain on the retina, which is at the back of the eye opposite the cornea? (b) If the cornea focused the mountain correctly on the retina as described in part (a), would it also focus the text from a computer screen on the retina if that screen were 25 cm in front of the eye? If not, where would it focus that text: in front of or behind the retina? (c) Given that the cornea has a radius of curvature of about 5.0 mm, where does it actually focus the mountain? Is this in front of or behind the retina? Does this help you see why the eye needs help from a lens to complete the task of focusing?

Consider a 10D lens that is used to image an object located 30 cm in front of the lens. Calculate the positions of the image and the magnification provided by the lens. the lens is placed in air.

Compute the focal length of a diverging thin lens made of flint glass, whose refractive index is 1.66 and is immersed in air having refractive index 1. The radii of the spherical surfaces of the lens are 10 cm and 20 cm. Select one: O -30 cm O O -10 cm 30 cm 10 cm

A double convex lens has a diameter of 5 cm and zero thickness at its edges. A point object on an axis through the center of the lens produces a real image on the opposite side. Both object and image distances are 30 cm, measured from a plane bisecting the lens. The lens has a refractive index of 1.52. Using the equivalence of optical paths through the center and edge of the lens, determine the thickness of thelens at its center.

It is your first day at work as a summer intern at an optics company. Your supervisor hands you a diverging lens and asks you to measure its focal length. You know that with a converging lens, you can measure the focal length by placing an object a distance ss to the left of the lens, far enough from the lens for the image to be real, and viewing the image on a screen that is to the right of the lens. By adjusting the position of the screen until the image is in sharp focus, you can determine the image distance s′s′ and then use the equation 1s+1s′=1f1s+1s′=1f, to calculate the focal length ff of the lens. But this procedure won'’t work with a diverging lens−−by itself, a diverging lens produces only virtual images, which can'’t be projected onto a screen. Therefore, to determine the focal length of a diverging lens, you do the following: First you take a converging lens and measure that, for an object 20.0 cmcm to the left of the lens, the image is 29.7 cmcm to the right of the lens.…

A lens of focal length 42 mm is used as a magnifier. The object being viewed is 6.8 mm long, and is positioned at the focal point of the lens. The lens is moved closer to the object, so that the image is now 15 cm from the lens. The distance the lens has been moved, in cm, is closest to:

To fit a contact lens to a patient's eye, a keratometer can be used to measure the curvature of the cornea-the front surface of the eye. This instrument places an illuminated object of known size at a known distance p from the cornea, which then reflects some light from the object, forming an image of it. The magnification M of the image is measured by using a small viewing telescope that allows a comparison of the image formed by the cornea with a second calibrated image projected into the field of view by a prism arrangement. Determine the radius of curvature of the cornea whenp = 28.0 cm and M = 0.0140.
