Chapter 34 Problem 58

Question

Lenses with given radii. Object o stands in front of a thin lens, on the central axis. For this situation, each problem in Table 34-7 gives object distance p, index of refraction n of the lens, radius 1'1 of the nearer lens surface, and radius 1'2 of the farther lens surface. (All distances are in centimeters.) Find (a) the image distance i and (b) the lateral magnification m of the object, including signs. Also, determine whether the image is (c) real (R) or virtual (V), (d) inverted (I) from object 0 or noninverted (NI), and (e) on the same side of the lens as object 0 or on the opposite side.

Solution

Step 1 of 5)

The first step in solving 34 problem number 58 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Lenses with given radii. Object o stands in front of a thin lens, on the central axis. For this situation, each problem in Table 34-7 gives object distance p, index of refraction n of the lens, radius 1'1 of the nearer lens surface, and radius 1'2 of the farther lens surface. (All distances are in centimeters.) Find (a) the image distance i and (b) the lateral magnification m of the object, including signs. Also, determine whether the image is (c) real (R) or virtual (V), (d) inverted (I) from object 0 or noninverted (NI), and (e) on the same side of the lens as object 0 or on the opposite side.
From the textbook chapter IMAGES you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
