Question

Transcribed Image Text:Optics A diagram of a hyperbolic mirror is shown.
The property of a hyperbolic mirror is that if you shine a
beam of light from the mirror, the light is reflected toward
the focal point. For this mirror, where should you place a
view lens to see the converging light?

- You are trying to photograph a bird sitting on a tree branch, but a tall hedge is blocking your view. However, as the drawing shows, a plane mirror reflects light from the bird into your camera. For what distance must you set the focus of the camera lens in order to snap a sharp picture of the bird's image?

We can think of the eye as an optical system in which the ciliary muscle constantly adjusts the curvature of the cornea-lens system to focus the image on the retina. Assume that the distance from the cornea to the retina is 2.5 cm, as shown in the figure below.
