3 Overview images formed by spherical mirrors images formed by refraction images formed by lenses images formed by lens combinations

4 Mirror Equation and Thin Lens Equation The same equation can help us to find the location and magnification of the image that will be formed by curved mirrors and thin lenses. 1 f = 1 p + 1 q This is what we now want to prove, for the case of spherical concave mirrors. Last lecture we showed that for spherical concave mirrors of radius, R: f = R 2

5 Concave Mirrors and the Mirror Equation Simple geometry shows why the mirror equation is true for a e Formation concave mirror. The real image lies at the location at which the reflected rays cross. h O a C a I h' u u V Principal axis q R p Figure 36.9 The image formed by a spherical concave mirror when the object O lies outside the center of curvature C. This geometric construction is used to derive Equation We will use this ray diagram.

6 Ray Diagrams for Spherical Mirrors For a ray diagram: draw at least two rays that you know the path of accurately. For Spherical mirrors: 1 Draw a ray from the top of the object parallel to the principle axis reflected through the focal point F. 2 Draw a ray from the top of the object through the focal point and reflected parallel to the principal axis. 3 Draw a ray from the top of the object through the center of curvature C and reflected back on itself. Where the lines meet, an image is formed.

7 When the object is located between the focal point and a concave mirror surface, the image is virtual, upright, and enlarged. Examples of Ray Diagrams 36.2 Images Formed by Sphe When the object is located so that the center of curvature lies between the object and a concave mirror surface, the image is real, inverted, and reduced in size.

10 e Formation Concave Mirrors and the Mirror Equation The real image lies at the location at which the reflected rays cross. h O a C a I h' u u V Principal axis q R p Figure 36.9 The image formed by a spherical concave mirror when the object O lies outside the center of curvature C. This geometric construction is used to derive Equation The angles of incidence and reflection are the same magnitude, θ. negative So, sign h h = is introduced q p, and because the image is inverted, so h9 is taken to be negative. Therefore, from Equation 36.1 and M = these q results, we find that the magnification of the image is p

11 Concave Mirrors and the Mirror Equation Looking at the green triangle and the red triangle with angle α: h R q = h p R which rearranges to h h = q R p R Using our magnification expression: q p = q R p R

12 Concave Mirrors and the Mirror Equation q p = q R p R Cross-multiplying and rearranging gives 2 R = 1 p + 1 q However, we already concluded that f = R/2, so 1 f = 1 p + 1 q We have confirmed the mirror equation for spherical concave mirrors, and it follows from simple geometry.

13 not derive any equations for convex spherical mirrors because Eq.4, Convex and 36.6 Mirrors can be used for either concave or convex mirrors if we t sign convention. We will refer to the region in which light rays or e toward the mirror as the front side of the mirror and the other sid We can draw the ray diagrams for convex mirrors in the same way. The image formed by the object is virtual, upright, and behind the mirror. Front Back O I F C q p

For paraxial rays (unlike the relatively large-angle ray shown in Fig ), the horizontal legs of these triangles are approximately p for the triangle containing angle a, R for the triangle β containing = γ + angle θ 2 b, and (3) q for the triangle containing angle g. In the small-angle approximation, tan u < u, so we can write the approximate relationships from these triangles as follows: Multiply (2) by n 1 and (3) by n 2, add them and subtract (1): tan a < a < d tan b < b < d tan g < g < n d 2 β p= n 1 α + n 1 β R + n 2 γ q Substituting these expressions into Equation 36.7 and dividing through by d gives Rearranging: n 1 n 1 α + n 2 γ = (n 2 n 1 )β p 1 n 2 q 5 n 2 2 n 1 R (36.8) Relation betw image distanc

37 Images Formed by Thin Lenses We will derive the thin lens equation 1 f = 1 p + 1 q (Notice it is the same as the mirror equation!) And the lens maker s equation 1 f ( 1 = (n 1) 1 ) R 1 R 2 We do this by considering each side of the lens as a refracting surface.

45 Thin Lens Equation Lastly, measure the object distance to be p = p 1 + t/2 and q = q 2 + t/2. Since t is effectively zero, we have: 1 p + 1 ( 1 = (n 1) 1 ) q R 1 R 2 p and q can vary, but since n, R 1, and R 2 are constant for a fixed lens, we know 1 p + 1 q = const.

If p, q f, by the definition of the focal length. This gives the thin lens equation 1 p + 1 q = 1 f

55 Ray Diagrams for Converging Lenses Again, draw rays whose behavior we know. Rays parallel to the principle axis are refracted through the focal point. Rays that travel through the center of the lens are (effectively) not refracted. For Converging Lenses: 1 Draw a ray from the top of the object parallel to the principle axis refracted through the focal point F. 2 Draw a ray from the top of the object through the focal point (or back to the focal point) and refracted parallel to the principal axis. 3 Draw a ray from the top of the object through the center of the lens, and continuing in a straight line.

This is used in eyeglasses (your eyeball lens is the second lens) refracting telescopes microscopes camera zoom lenses Lenses can also be used together with curved mirrors, for example in reflecting telescopes.
