Image
We make a zoom lens with a converging lens followed by a diverging lens. The converging lens has focal length +12 cm, and the diverging lens has focal length -12 cm. If the separation between the lenses is 8.7 cm,
and the object is at infinity, how far is the image from the second (rightmost) lens?
cm
If the first lens has a diameter of 4.3 cm, what is the f number of the light after the second lens (only after the second lens)? You may assume the second lens does not block ("vignette") any light. f/

An objective lens will form an image that covers the entire area of the end of a viewing bundle of optical fibers. The radius of the bundle and, therefore, the image of the lens, is r = 1.00 mm. This
image will then be carried by the optical fibers to an eyepiece lens at the outside end of the fiberscope, not shown in the figure. The tissues you wish to observe ("Object" in the figure) that are to
appear within the image fill a circle of radius r 5.30 cm. The lens will be located a distance p = 4.77 cm from the object. You need to determine the following. (Round your answers to at least two
decimal places.)

- CASE STUDY A group of students is given two converging lenses. Lens A has a focal length of 12.5 cm. and lens B has a focal length of 50.0 cm. The diameter of each lens is 6.50 cm. The students are asked to construct a telescope from these lenses if possible, and they have this discussion: Avi: To make a telescope, we pick lens B to be the objective and lens A to be the eyepiece. Lens B has the greater focal length, so it has to be the objective. Cameron: Both lenses have the same diameter6.50 cm. It doesnt matter which is the objective. Shannon: It does matter because the magnification depends on their relative focal lengths. We still want to get the best magnification. a. What do you think? b.

- Minimum focal length of your eye Each of your eyes has a lens in it. This lens can change its shape and hence its focal length. By changing the focal length you are able to focus on an object based on how far away it is from you. For this problem you will determine the minimum focal length of your eye. A) Hold an object out in front of you at arm's length. Close one eye and bring the object towards your eye and determine how close it can be to your eye and still be in focus. 25 cm ✓ B.) The average human eye has an image distance of 1.7 cm. In other words, it is 1.7 cm from the lens in your eye to the retina.
