Special Relativity

The theory of special relativity discusses how space and time are related to objects traveling along a straight line at a constant speed. Simply stated, as an object reaches the speed of light, its mass becomes infinite and it is unable to move faster than light. This interstellar speed limit has been the topic of much debate in astronomy, and also in science fiction when people consider how to fly over large distances.

Can an image be larger than the object even though its magnification is negative? Explain.
A cataract-impaired lens in an eye may be surgically removed and replaced by a manufactured lens. The focal length required for the new lens is determined by the lens-lo-retina distance, which is measured by a sonar-like device, and by the requirement that the implant provide for correct distance vision. (a) If the distance from lens to retina is 22.4 mm, calculate the power of the implanted lens in diopters. (b) Since there is no accommodation and the implant allows for correct distance vision, a corrective lens for close work or reading must be used. Assume a reading distance of 33.0 cm, and calculate the power of the lens in the reading glasses.
During LASIK eye surgery (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis), the shape of the cornea is modified by vaporizing some of its material. If the surgery is performed to correct for nearsightedness, how does the cornea need to be reshaped?
Use the law of reflection to prove that the focal length of a mirror is hall its radius of curvature. That is, prove that f = R/2. Note this is true for a spherical mirror only if its diameter is small compared with its radius of curvature.
Example 23-9 : Image formed by a converging lens. What are (a) the position, and (b) the size, of the image of a 7.6-cm-high leaf placed 1.00 m from a +50.0-mm-focal-length camera lens?
A clerk at the local grocery store wears glasses that make her eyes look smaller than they actually are. Is the clerk nearsighted or farsighted? Explain.
If a lens is immersed in water, its focallength changes, as discussed in Conceptual Example 26-17.(a) If a spherical mirror is immersed in water, does its focal lengthincrease, decrease, or stay the same? (b) Choose the best explanation from among the following:I. The focal length will increase because the water will causemore bending of light.II. Water will refract the light. This, combined with the reflection due to the mirror, will result in a decreased focal length.III. The focal length stays the same because it depends on thefact that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection for a mirror. This is unaffected by the presence of thewater
A lens can be used to start a fire by focusing an image of the sun onto a piece of flammable material. All other things being equal, would a lens with a short focal length or a long focal length be better as a fire starter? Explain.
