Chapter 35, Problem 29P

(II) The normal lens on a 35-mm camera has a focal length of 50.0 mm. Its aperture diameter varies from a maximum of 25 mm (f/2) to a minimum of 3.0 mm (f/16). Determine the resolution limit set by diffraction for (f/2) and (f/16). Specify as the number of lines per millimeter resolved on the detector or film. Take λ = 560 nm.

(e) How many microns across is the smallest detail a microscope can discern, if this microscope uses visible light with a wavelength of 550 nm? The microscope has a circular aperture of diameter 5 mm, and the object distance is 1 cm in front of the microscope's objective lens. Recall that 1 micron = 10-6 m.
(i) Derive the expression for a critical incident angle and a mumerical aperture for a given step indexed fiber. (ii) Calculate the critical propagation angle and critical incident angle of an optical fiber of core refractive index, n = 1.52 and cladding refractive index n2 1.50. Given that the fiber is kept in %3D water.
