1 Lenses & Prism c c h c. A transparent sbstance bonded by two sraces o deinite geometrical shape is called Lens. pond ish 2. A lens may be considered to be made p o a nmber o small prisms pt together. 3. Principal axis: The line joining the two centres o cratre o the spherical sraces constitting a lens is called principal axis. 4. adis o cratre: A doble conex lens or a concae lens is bonded by two spherical sraces which are parts o spheres. The centre o sch a sphere is called the centre o cratre and the distance rom this centre pto the spherical srace is called the radis o cratre. 5. Optic centre: When a ray o light incident on one srace o a lens meets the second srace o the lens ater reraction and passes throgh a particlar point on the principal axis inside the lens sch that the emergent ray is parallel to the incident ray, then that point on the axis is called optic centre (). 6. Principal ocs : When a narrow beam o light parallel to the principal axis strikes a lens, the rays ater reraction either ocs at a point (in the case o conex lens) or appear to dierge rom a ixed point on the principal axis (in the case o a concae lens) o the lens. This point is called principal ocs (F). 7. Focal length: The distance between the optical centre and the principal ocs is called ocal length (). F F F F 9
