Homework 12 (Ch24)
1. If an f  135 -mm telephoto lens is designed to cover object distances from 1.2 m to , over
what distance must the lens move relative to the plane of the film?
Solution
We locate the image from equation:
 1  1
 
 d o   di
 1
 .
 f
a) For an object at infinity, the image will be in the focal plane, so we have di  f  135mm.
b) When the object is at 1.2 m,
 1  1


 120 cm   di

, which gives di  152 mm.


Thus the distance from the lens to the film must change by
dib  dia  152mm  135mm  17mm.
2. A person’s left eye is corrected by a  3.50-diopter lens, 2.0 cm from the eye. (a) Is this
person’s left eye near- or farsighted? (b) What is this eye’s far point without glasses?
Solution
(a) Since the diopter is negative, the lens is diverging, so it produces images closer than the
object; thus the person is nearsighted.
(b) We find the far point by finding the image distance for an object at infinity:
 1  1 1
       P;
 d o   di  f
1 1
       3.50D, which gives di   0.286 m   28.6cm.
    di 
Because this is the distance from the lens, the far point without glasses is
28.6cm  2.0cm  30.6cm.

3. A 3.30-mm-wide beetle is viewed with a 9.50-cm-focal-length lens. A normal eye views the
image at its near point. Calculate (a) the angular magnification, (b) the width of the image,
and (c) the object distance from the lens.
Solution
(a) The angular magnification with the image at the near point is

(b) Because the object without the lens and the image with the lens
are at the near point, the angular magnification is also the ratio of
widths:

5. An astronomical telescope has its two lenses spaced 75.2 cm apart. If the objective lens has a
focal length of 74.5 cm, what is the magnification of this telescope? Assume a relaxed eye.
Solution
For both object and image far away, we find the focal length of the eyepiece from the separation
of the lenses:
L  fo  fe ;
f e  L  f 0  75.2cm-74.5cm = 0.7cm
The magnification of the telescope is given by

6. A microscope has a 1.8-cm-focal-length eyepiece and a 0.80-cm objective lens. Assuming a
relaxed normal eye, calculate (a) the position of the object if the distance between the lenses
is 16.0 cm, and (b) the total magnification.
Solution
(a) Because the image from the objective is at the focal point of the eyepiece, the image distance
for the objective is
dio  l  f e  16.0cm  1.8cm  14.2cm.
We find the object distance from the lens equation for the objective:
