24 Geometric Optics Water drop as a converging lens
Reflection at a Plane Surface Image and Object Rays diverging from one point P (object) recombine at point P’ by mirror or lens— an image formed.
Object & Image Distances • Object distance • Image distance • Real image • Virtual image • Magnification
Sign Rules s: The (real) object distance is positive. (The distance is negative for a virtual object.) s’: The image distance (s’) is positive for all real images and negative for virtual images. y and y’: Heights are positive if measured upward from the principal axis and negative if measured downward. m: Magnification is positive if the image is erect and negative when inverted. f: The focal length is positive for converging mirrors and lenses, and negative for diverging ones.
Reflection at a Spherical Surface Mirror Equation
Imaging thru Thin –Lens: Principal Rays http://www.mtholyoke.edu/~mpeterso/classes/phys301/geomopti/lenses.html
Example: The Eye’s Lens The least distance of distinct vision (LDDV): 25 cm ~ 10 in
Homework Ch24 Answers to multiple choice problems
quiz • Construct the images using principal rays for a converging lens and a convex mirror, respectively. • Find the locations of images using lens/mirror equation (f = +5 or -5 cm, s = 8 cm).
