Problem 8: Consider the compound optical system shown in the diagram, where two thin lenses of focal lengths 7.5 cm (left lens) and 7.5 cm (right lens) are separated by a distance 45 cm. a. If an object is placed a distance do = 17.3 cm to the left of the first lens (the left one) as shown in the figure, how far to the right of that lens, in centimeters, is the image formed? b. What is the magnification of the first lens? c. What is the object distance, in centimeters, for the second lens (the right lens)? d. What is the image distance, in centimeters, for the second lens? e. What is the magnification of the second lens?
Applications Of Reflection Of Light
When a light ray (termed as the incident ray) hits a surface and bounces back (forms a reflected ray), the process of reflection of light has taken place.
Sign Convention for Mirrors
A mirror is made of glass that is coated with a metal amalgam on one side due to which the light ray incident on the surface undergoes reflection and not refraction.
