A concave lens refracts parallel rays in such a way that they are bent away from the axis of the lens. For this reason, a concave lens is referred to as a diverging lens.
Part A: Consider the following diagrams, where F represents the focal point of a concave lens. In these diagrams, the image formed by the lens is obtained using the ray tracing technique. Which diagrams are accurate?(Figure 1)
*Type A if you think that only diagram A is correct, type AB if you think that only diagrams A and B are correct, and so on.
Part B: If the focal length of the concave lens is -7.50 cm , at what distance d_o from the lens should an object be placed so that its image is formed 3.70 cm from the lens?
If the incident ray at point A is at the critical angle between mediums 2 and 3, does the ray incident at point B refract out of medium 2 into 3? If so, what is the (i) angle of refraction at point B? If not, what is the reflected angle at point B? (ii) Draw an accurate ray diagram at point B. (iii) What is the initial angle θ at point C?
Thank you so much in advance.
The diagram shows a lens with a positive focal length 11 cm. (a) If we place an object at a distance of 25 cm from the lens, where will the resulting image position on the other side of the lens be found? Include units in answer, (b) With the object at 25 cm from the lens, what will the magnification be for the image at this position? (c) If we place an object at a distance of 4 cm from the lens, where will the resulting image position be found? (d) With the object at 4 cm from the lens, what will the magnification be for the image at this position?
