An object is placed 965 cm from a glass lens n 151 with one
An object is placed 96.5 cm from a glass lens (n = 1.51) with one concave surface of radius 23.5 cm and one convex surface of radius 18.9 cm .
Part A Determine the final image distance from the center of lens. Follow the sign conventions. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
Part B What is the magnification? Follow the sign conventions. Express your answer using two significant figures.
Solution
Using Lens maker formula:
1/f = (n -1)(1/R1 - 1/R2)
1/f = (1.51 - 1) [ 1/(-23.5) - 1/(-18.9)]
f = 49.24 cm
A. applying lens equation,
1/f = 1/do + 1/di
1/49.24 = 1/96.5 + 1/di
di = 100.55 cm ............from lens.
B. m = - di/do = -100.55 / 96.5 = - 1.04
Using Lens maker formula:
1/f = (n -1)(1/R1 - 1/R2)
1/f = (1.51 - 1) [ 1/(-23.5) - 1/(-18.9)]
f = 49.24 cm
A. applying lens equation,
1/f = 1/do + 1/di
1/49.24 = 1/96.5 + 1/di
di = 100.55 cm ............from lens.
B. m = - di/do = -100.55 / 96.5 = - 1.04
