Exercise 25
Step 1
1 of 2
Magnifying glasses are made of two convex lenses. It is known that the picture of an image will be smaller than the related object when the object is positioned farther than twice the focal length.

$$
begin{align}
{d_o}>2cdot {f}
end{align}
$$

$$
{d_o}>2cdot {f}
$$
Exercise 26
Step 1
1 of 5
Since we know $f=6times10^{-2}text{ m}$ and $d_{o}=2times10^{-2}text{ m}$ will calculate, by using the definition of the thin lens equation, that the distance of image.

Also, we need to find the high of an image with knowing $h_{o}=3times10^{-2}text{ m}$ and present this situation on a ray diagram.

Step 2
2 of 5
$$
begin{align}
frac{1}{f}&=frac{1}{d_i}+frac{1}{d_o} \
{d_i}&=frac{d_ocdot f}{d_o -f} \
{d_i}&=frac{2times10^{-2}mcdot 6times10^{-2}m}{2times10^{-2}m- 6times10^{-2}m}{} \
{d_i}&=-3times10^{-2}m
end{align}
$$

Minus in solution means that the image is on the same side of a lens as the object.

Step 3
3 of 5
Now, we use the magnification equation.

$$
begin{align}
frac{h_i}{h_o}&=frac{-d_i}{d_o} \
{h_i}&=frac{-d_i cdot h_o}{d_o} \
{h_i}&=frac{-(-3)times10^{-2}m cdot 3}{2times10^{-2}m} \
{h_i}&=4.5times10^{-2}m
end{align}
$$

All calculated terms can also be found by drawing a ray diagram.Exercise scan

${d_o}=-3times10^{-2}m$

$$
{h_i}=4.5times10^{-2}m

Exercise 27
Step 1
1 of 1
First and third lenses are convex/ converging and second and forth are concave/ diverging.
Exercise 28
Step 1
1 of 2
Chromatic aberration is an effect that appears in every lens because lenses have defect that mirrors do not have. A lens refracts different wavelengths of light at slightly different angles, so an object viewed through a lens appears to be ringed with rainbow colors. To manage the precision in focusing the picture when looking through a microscope, we use $textbf{achromatic lens}$ which is a system of two or more lenses.

Because it is made of achromatic lens.
Exercise 29
Step 1
1 of 2
When the white light shines through a convex lens, it disperses into different color and wavelength rays. Depending on a wavelength each ray refracts at different angles. The red light is refracted farthest, green is in the middle and blue refracts closes to the lens.

To focus on the blue light you need to move the screen closer to the lens.

You need to move the screen closer to the lens.
Exercise 30
Step 1
1 of 2
An air lens is constructed of two watch glasses and placed into the water. When ray travels from water trough the glass it refracts, also when it leaves a glass it refracts in the water.
