- A certain slide projector has a 100 mm-focal length lens. (a) How far away is the screen if a slide is placed 103 mm from the lens and produces a sharp image? (b) If the slide is 24.0 by 36.0 mm, what are the dimensions of the image? Explicitly show how you follow the steps in the Problem-solving strategy: Lenses.arrow_forwardAn object is placed in front of a converging lens at an object distance of twice the focal length of the lens. Sketch a ray diagram and compare the image and object distances. Repeat with two more ray diagrams, using different focal lengths and still making the object distance twice the focal length. Can you draw any conclusions by comparing the object distance and the image distance?arrow_forwardA camera lens used for taking close-up photographs has a focal length of 22.0 mm. The farthest it can be placed from the film is 33.0 mm. (a) What is the closest object that can be photographed? (b) What is the magnification of this closest object?arrow_forward
- Figure 35.34 diagrams a cross section of a camera. It has a single lens of focal length 65.0 mm, which is to form an image on the CCD at the back of the camera. Suppose the position of the lens has been adjusted to focus the image of a distant object. How far and in what direction must the lens be moved to form a sharp image of an object that is 2.00 m away?arrow_forwardA lens is used to examine an object across a room. Is the lens probably being used as a simple magnifier? Explain in terms of focal length, the image, and magnification.arrow_forwardA certain slide projector has a 100 mm focal length lens. (a) How far away is the screen, if a slide is placed 103 mm from the lens and produces a sharp image? (b) If the slide is 24.0 by 36.0 mm, what are the dimensions of the image? Explicitly show how you follow the steps in the PreblemSolving Strategy for lenses.arrow_forward
- Unreasonable Results Your friends show you an image through a microscope. They tell you that the microscope has an objective with a 0.500-cm focal length and an eyepiece with a 5.00-cm focal length. The resulting overall magnification is 250,000. Are these viable values for a microscope? Unless otherwise stated, the lens-to-retina distance is 2.00 cm.arrow_forwardTrace rays to find which way the given ray will emerge after refraction through the thin lens in the following figure. Assume thin-lens approximation. (Hint: Pick a point P on the given ray in each case. Treat that point as an object. Now, find its image Q. Use the rule: All rays on the other side of the lens will either go through Q or appear to be coming from Q.)arrow_forward(a) The print in many books averages 3.50 mm in height. How high is the image at the print on the retina when the book is held 30.0 cm from the eye? (b) Compare the size of the print to the sizes of rods and cones in the fovea and discuss the possible details observable in the letters. (The eye-brain system can perform better because of interconnections and higher order image processing.)arrow_forward

Construct accurate ray diagrams for object distances of (i) 20.0 cm and (ii) 5.00 cm. (a) From your ray diagrams, determine the location of each image. (b) Is the image real or virtual? (c) Is the image upright or inverted? (d) What is the magnification of the image? (c) Compare your results with the values found algebraically. (f) Comment on difficulties in constructing the graph that could lead to differences between the graphical and algebraic answers.arrow_forwardLulu looks at her image in a makeup mirror. lt is enlarged when she is close to the mirror. As she backs away, the image becomes larger, then impossible to identify when she is 30.0 cm from the mirror, then upside down when she is beyond 30.0 cm, and finally small, clear, and upside down when she is much farther from the mirror, (i) Is the mirror (a) convex, (b) plane, or (c) concave?
