- = A leaf of length his positioned d below. Leaf d 70.3 cm in front of a converging lens with a focal length of 34.0 cm. An observer views the image of the leaf from a position 1.26 m behind the lens, as shown in the figure 1.26 m (a) What is the magnitude of the lateral magnification (the ratio of image size to the object size) produced by the lens? (b) What angular magnification is achieved by viewing the image of the leaf rather than viewing the leaf directly?arrow_forwardA compound microscope has a distance of 161 mm between the objective lens and the eyepiece. The focal lengths of the objective and the eyepiece are 4.03 mm and 25.9 mm, respectively. Determine the magnitude of the total angular magnification ? of the microscope for a person whose near point is 25.0 cm away.arrow_forwardA biconcave lens has radii of curvature equal to R₁ = 31.0 cm and R₂ = 43.7 cm. A very distant object on the R₁ side of the lens forms an image. The lens medium has index of refraction 1.53 for violet light and 1.51 for red light. (a) Where is the image formed by violet light?

- 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.…arrow_forwardThe crystalline lens of the human eye is a double-convex lens made of material having an index of refraction of 1.44 (although this varies). Its focal length in air is about 8.00 mm, which also varies. We shall assume that the radil of curvature of its two surfaces have the same magnitude. (Note: The results obtained in the parts A, B and C are not strictly accurate, because the lens is embedded in fluids having refractive indexes different from that of air.)

R= 7.0 mm Submit ✓ Correct Set Up: = (n − 1)(-). If R is the radius of the lens, then R₁ = R and R₂=-R₁ ² + ² = }· m = ² = -² Solve: = (n − 1) (₁ - ₁) = (n − 1) ( ²2 - ) = ²(n-¹) R=2(n-1)f=2(1.44) (8.00mm) = 7.04mm Part B If an object 12.0 cm tall is placed 26.0 cm from the eye lens, where would the lens focus it? Express your answer in…arrow_forwardA thin lens is comprised of two spherical surfaces with radii of curvatures of 32.4 cm for the front side and -26.9 cm for the back side. The material of which the lens is compose has an index of refraction of 1.49. What is the magnification of the image formed by an object placed 43.7cm from the lens?arrow_forward
