- Suppose an object has thickness dp so that it extends from object distance p to p + dp. (a) Prove that the thickness dq of its image is given by (q2/p2)dp. (b) The longitudinal magnification of the object is Mlong = dq/dp. How is the longitudinal magnification related to the lateral magnification M?arrow_forwardCan an image be larger than the object even though its magnification is negative? Explain.arrow_forwardA converging lens has a focal length of 10.0 cm. Locate the object if a real image is located at a distance from the lens of (a) 20.0 cm and (b) 50.0 cm. What If? Redo the calculations if the images are virtual and located at a distance from the lens of (c) 20.0 cm and (d) 50.0 cm.arrow_forward
- (a) What is the focal length of a magnifying glass that produces a magnification of 3.00 when held 5.00 cm from an object such as a rare coin? (b) Calculate the power of the magnifier in diopters. (c) Discuss how this power compares to those for store-bought reading glasses (typically 1.0 to 4.0 D). Is the magnifier's power greater, and should it be?arrow_forwardWill the focal length of a lens change when it is submerged in water? Explain.arrow_forwardSuppose you want to use a converging lens to project the image of two trees onto a screen. One tree is a distance x from the lens; the other is at 2%, as in Figure CQ23.7. You adjust the screen so that the near tree is in focus. If you now want the far tree to be in focus, do you move the screen toward or away from the lens? Figure CQ23.7arrow_forward
- If the lens of a person’s eye is removed because of cataracts (as has been done since ancient times), why would you expect a spectacle lens of about 16 D to be prescribed?arrow_forwardConstruct Your Own Problem Consider a telescope of the type used by Galileo, having a convex objective and a concave eyepiece as illustrated in part (a) of Figure 2.40. Construct a problem in which you calculate the location and size of the image produced. Among the things to be considered are the focal lengths of the lenses and their relative placements as well as the size and location of the object. Verify that the angular magnification is greater than one. That is, the angle subtended at the eye by the image is greater than the angle subtended by the object.arrow_forward(a) Where does an object need to be placed relative to a microscope for its 0.500 cm focal leng1h objective to produce a magnification of 400? (b) Where should the 5.00 cm focal length eyepiece be placed to produce a further fourfold (4.00) magnification?arrow_forward
- An object is located 50.0 cm from a converging lens having a focal length of 15.0 cm. Which of the following statements Ls true regarding the image formed by the lens? (a) It is virtual, upright, and larger than the object. (b) It is real, inverted, and smaller than the object. (c) It is virtual, inverted, and smaller than the object. (d) It Ls real, inverted, and larger than the object. (e) It is real, upright, and larger than the object.arrow_forwardA leaf of length h is positioned 71.0 cm in front of a converging lens with a focal length of 39.0 cm. An observer views the image of the leaf from a position 1.26 in behind the lens, as shown in Figure P25.25. (a) What is the magnitude of the lateral magnification (the ratio of the 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 loaf directly? Figure P25.25arrow_forwardA diverging lens has a focal length of 20.0 cm. Use graph paper to construct accurate ray diagrams for object distance of (a) 40.0cm and (b) 10.0 cm. In each case, determine the location of the image from the diagram and the image magnification, and state whether the image is uptight or inverted. (c) Estimate the magnitude of uncertainty in locating the points in the graph. Are your answers and the uncertainty consistent with the algebraic answers found in Problem 33?arrow_forward
