You have two lenses at your disposal, one with a focal length f1 = 44.0 cm, the other with a focal length f2 = -44.0 cm.
If you want to produce an image of the bulb that is enlarged by a factor of 1.70, how far from the wall should the lens be placed?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.
While looking into your beverage, you notice that the straw appears bent where it enters the water's surface. If the angle your eyes make with the normal to the water is 65.0 degrees, what angle does the straw appear to be bent at?
answer choices
a)42.8 degrees
b)95.2 degrees
c)65.0 degrees
d)45.0 degrees
In a simplified model of the human eye, the aqueous and vitreous humors and the lens all have a refractive index of 1.40, and all the bending occurs at the cornea, whose vertex is 2.75cm from the retina. What should be the radius of curvature of the cornea such that the image of an object 60.0cm from the cornea’s vertex is focused on the retina?
