01

Given Information.

We need to find out yang's near point while wearing glasses after her sight is corrected for distance vision.

02

Simplify 

As we know the value of:

f=150cm.

As we can conclude that the yang nearsighted. With glasses and wears a virtual image focused to her far point, 1f=1-150+1and also given the focal length of -150cm.

We know the image has a form at 20cmaway for her to see clearly, and using that image to distance to calculate a new near point and also we can follow the way:

S=(-150)(-20)(-20)-(-150)S=3000130S=23.07cm.

Here,Sis the near point.

A 20xtelescope has a 12cmdiameter objective lens. What minimum diameter must the eyepiece lens have to collect all the light rays from an on-axis distant source?

A diffraction-limited lens can focus light to a 10μmdiameter spot on a screen. Do the following actions make the spot diameter larger, make it smaller, or leave it unchanged?

A. Decreasing the wavelength of the light.

B. Decreasing the lens diameter.

C. Decreasing the lens focal length.

D. Decreasing the lens-to-screen distance.

A 2.0-tall object is 20cmto the left of a lens with a focal length of 10cm. A second lens with a focal length of -5cm is 30cm to the right of the first lens.

a. Use ray tracing to find the position and height of the image. Do this accurately using a ruler or paper with a grid, then make measurements on your diagram.

b. Calculate the image position and height. Compare with your ray-tracing answers in part a.

A beam of white light enters a transparent material. Wavelengths for which the index of refraction is n are refracted at angle θ2. Wavelengths for which the index of refraction is n+δn, where δn<<n , are refracted at angle θ2+δθ.

a). Show that the angular separation of the two wavelengths, in radians, is δθ=-(δnn)tanθ2

b). A beam of white light is incident on a piece of glass at 30.0°. Deep violet light is refracted 0.28° more than deep red light. The index of refraction for deep red light is known to be 1.552. What is the index of refraction for deep violet light?

White light is incident onto a 30°prism at the 40°angleshown in Figure p35.41. Violet light emerges perpendicular to the rear face of the prism. The index of refraction of violet light in this glass is 20%larger than the index of refraction of red light. At what angleϕdoes red light emerges from the rear face?
