A farsighted eye is corrected by placing a converging lens in front of the eye. The lens will create a virtual image that is located at the near point (the closest an object can be and still be in focus) of the viewer when the object is held at a comfortable distance, usually taken to be 25.0 cm. If a person has a near point of 79.5 cm, what power reading glasses should be prescribed to treat this hyperopia? Assume that the distance from the eye to the lens is negligible.

A nearsighted eye is corrected by placing a diverging lens in front of the eye. The lens will create a virtual image of a distant object at the far point (the farthest an object can be from the eye and still be in focus) of the myopic viewer where it will be clearly seen. In the traditional treatment of myopia, an object at infinity is focused to the far point of the eye. If an individual has a far point of 39.5 cm, prescribe the correct power of the lens that is needed. Assume that the distance from the eye to the lens is negligible.
A woman wears bifocal glasses with the lenses 2.0 cm in front of her eyes. The upper half of each lens has power -0.500 diopter and corrects her far vision so that she can focus clearly on distant objects when looking through that half. The lower half of each lens has power +2.00 diopters and corrects her near vision when she looks through that half. (a) What are the far point and near point of her eyes? (b) While the woman is repairing a leaky pipe under her kitchen sink, she looks at close objects through the upper half of her bifocal lenses. What is the closest object that she can see clearly?

When an object is located very far away from a convex mirror, the image of the object is formed 25 cm behind the mirror. Calculate where an image would be formed when the object (height 5cm) is placed 11.0 cm in front of the mirror. Is this image magnified, upright or inverted and is it real or virtual?

First read Section 2.14 of the Kaminski & Jensen text entitled, The “Pizza” Procedure for Problem Solving (silly name maybe, but it underscores the need to break large problems intomanageable parts). In describing the major parts of the procedure for solving engineeringproblems, an analogy is made to a stool with three legs. Name and describe in a few words the3 “legs” of the procedure for solving engineering problems:
