Warm Up • A concave mirror has a focal length of 5 cm. If an object is 2 cm away from the mirror, where is the image? • A convex mirror has a focal length of 10 cm. A person looks at their eyeball in the mirror 8 cm away. Where is the image?
Optics: Lenses
Analogy… • Mirrors make images with reflection • Lenses make images with refraction!
Remember…. • Virtual images are located where reflected light appears to converge • Real images are located where reflected light actually converges
Convex Lenses Thicker in the center than edges. Two focii (one on either side) Lens that converges (brings together) light rays. • Light traveling is refracted through lens, then refracted again back into air • Any ray traveling parallel Will be refracted through focal point
Convex Lenses • Lens that converges (brings together) light rays. • Forms real images and virtual images depending on position of the object The Magnifier
Lens Ray Diagram Rules • Three Rays: • Ray goes parallel, refracted through f (on other side) • Ray goes through f (on same side), gets refracted parallel (on other side) • Ray goes through the center of lens
Concave Lenses • Lenses that are thicker at the edges and thinner in the center. • Diverges light rays • All images areright side up and reduced. The De-Magnifier
How You See • Near Sighted – Eyeball is too long and image focuses in front of the retina • Near Sightedness – Concave lenses expand focal length • Far Sighted – Eyeball is too short so image is focused behind the retina. • Far Sightedness – Convex lens shortens the focal length.
pinhole object image at film plane object image at film plane lens Cameras, in brief In a pinhole camera, the hole is so small that light hitting any particular point on the film plane must have come from a particular direction outside the camera In a camera with a lens, the same applies: that a point on the film plane more-or-less corresponds to a direction outside the camera. Lenses have the important advantage of collecting more light than the pinhole admits
