30 * Repeat the procedure in Problem 23.27 for the following lenses and objects: (a) an object that is 20 cm from a convex lens of +10-cm focal length, (b) an object that is 5 cm from the same lens, (c) an object that is 20 cm from a concave lens of - 10-cm focal length, and (d) an object that is 5 cm from the lens in part (c).
* Use a ruler to draw ray diagrams to locate the images of the following objects: (a) an object that is 30 cm from a convex lens of +10-cm focal length, (b) an object that is 14 cm from the same lens, and (c) an object that is 5 cm from the same lens. (Choose a scale so that your drawing fills a significant portion of the width of a paper.) Measure the image locations on your drawings and indicate if they are real or virtual, upright or inverted.

- A zoom lens system is a combination of lenses that produces a variable magnification of a fixed object as it maintains a fixed image position. The magnification is varied by moving one or more lenses along the axis. Multiple lenses are used in practice, but the effect of zooming in on an object can be demonstrated with a simple two-lens system. An object, two converging lenses, and a screen are mounted on an optical bench. Lens 1, which is to the right of the object, has a focal length of f1 = 5.00 cm, and lens 2, which is to the right of the first lens, has a focal length of f2 = 10.0 cm. The screen is to the right of lens 2. Initially, an object is situated at a distance of 7.50 cm to the left of lens 1, and the image formed on the screen has a magnification of +1.00. (a) Find the distance between the object and the screen. (b) Both lenses are now moved along their common axis while the object and the screen maintain fixed positions until the image formed on the screen has a magnification of +3.00. Find the displacement of each lens from its initial position in part (a). (c) Can the lenses be displaced in more than one way?arrow_forwardA jewelers lens of focal length 5.0 cm is used as a magnifier. With the lens held near the eye, determine (a) the angular magnification when the object is at the focal point of the lens and (b) the angular magnification when the image formed by the lens is at the near point of the eye (25 cm). (c) What is the object distance giving the maximum magnification?arrow_forwardTwo lenses made of kinds of glass having different indices of refraction n1 and n2 are cemented together to form an optical doublet. Optical doublets are often used to correct chromatic aberrations in optical devices. The first lens of a certain doublet has index of refraction n1, one flat side, and one concave side with a radius of curvature of magnitude R. The second lens has index of refraction n2 and two convex sides with radii of curvature also of magnitude R. Show that the doublet can be modeled as a single thin lens with a focal length described by 1f=2n2n11Rarrow_forward
- (a) What is the maximum angular magnification of an eyeglass lens having a focal length of 18.0 cm when used as a simple magnifier? (b) What is the magnification of this lens when the eye is relaxed?arrow_forwardA microscope has an objective lens with a focal length of 16.22 mm and an eyepiece with a focal length of 9.50 mm. With the length of the barrel set at 29.0 cm, the diameter of a red blood cells image subtends an angle of 1.43 mrad with the eye. It the final image distance is 29.0 cm from the eyepiece, what is the actual diameter of the red blood cell? Hint: To solve this question, go back to basics and use the thin-lens equation.arrow_forward
