Ray Optics

Optics is the study of light in the field of physics. It refers to the study and properties of light. Optical phenomena can be classified into three categories: ray optics, wave optics, and quantum optics. Geometrical optics, also known as ray optics, is…

Converging Lens

Converging lens, also known as a convex lens, is thinner at the upper and lower edges and thicker at the center. The edges are curved outwards. This lens can converge a beam of parallel rays of light that is coming from outside and focus it on a point on…

Plano-Convex Lens

To understand the topic well we will first break down the name of the topic, ‘Plano Convex lens’ into three separate words and look at them individually.

Lateral Magnification

In very simple terms, the same object can be viewed in enlarged versions of itself, which we call magnification. To rephrase, magnification is the ability to enlarge the image of an object without physically altering its dimensions and structure. This pr…

Question

Chapter 13.2, Problem 10R

To determine

Explain how vision problems reduced with lenses.

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 10R

The explanation on reducing vision problem by lenses is given.

Explanation of Solution

Lenses in our eyes are flexible. For various distances it changes its shape in order to focus on the object. Muscles named Ciliary, help in changing the shape of the lens.

Lens becomes more rounded when viewing near objects.

Glasses or lenses allow the eye to focus light in the right spot on the retina which produces the clearest image of object

Conclusion:

Hence, the explanation is given.
