1 32 Optical Images image formation reflection & refraction mirror & lens equations Human eye Spherical aberration Chromatic aberration
2
2 image formation real image: rays converge to a point Ex. sun’s rays focused by magnifier virtual image: apparent source of light divergence Ex. image seen in mirror
3
3 Plane Mirror Image distances measured from mirror & axis image height hi = object height ho object distance do = image distance di
4
44 concave mirror images
5
55 convex mirror images always “virtual”, “upright”, “diminished”
6
66 lens images
7
77 Lens & Mirror Equation relate do, di & f. lateral magnification (LM) = hi/ho. you must learn the sign conventions to use these formulas
8
8 imbedded object image distance < object distance

99 lens power power = 1/(focal-length(meters)) unit: [D, diopters, 1/m] used for corrective lenses Ex. near-sighted person P = -5.0D f = 1/P = 1/(-5) = -0.2m = -20cm.

10 human eye average index of refraction ~ 1.4
11
11 Far Sighted Eye correction requires converging lens
12
12 near sighted eye correction requires diverging lens
13
13 Spherical Aberration Spherical aberration: light striking near edge focus at different points than light striking near center
14
14 Chromatic Aberration Chromatic aberration: different colors focus at different points
15
15 Summary Image formation by lenses & mirrors Real/virtual, orientation, magnification. Near & far-sighted problem & correction Spherical & chromatic aberration

18 Question: Reverse the designations in the example above. Object is now the fish, so n1 = 1.33 (fish location). Let the fish be 10cm from bowl surface. Where is the image of the fish formed that the cat will see? Answer: s = 10cm, s’ = ?, r = -15cm, n1 = 1.33, n2 = 1.00. 0.133 + 1/s’ = 0.022 1/s’ = -0.111 s’ = -9.00cm

19 Calculating Focal Length for a Thin Lens Example: A double convex, thin glass lens with n = 1.5 has radii of curvature of 10 and 15cm. Find its focal length.
