20 Constructing images with rays and mirrors Paraxial rays are used These rays may only yield approximate results The focal point for a spherical mirror is half way to the center of the sphere. Rule 1: All rays incident parallel to the axis are reflected so that they appear to be coming from the focal point F. Rule 2: All rays that (when extended) pass through C (the center of the sphere) are reflected back on themselves. Rule 3: All rays that (when extended) pass through F are reflected back parallel to the axis. Parallel Rays Rule: Rays parallel to each other are imaged to the same place on the focal plane 2003 April 29 80B-Light 20

21 Spherical mirror images Convex spherical mirrors image is virtual focal length is half the radius of the mirror image is closer to mirror image is erect makes a wide angle mirror Concave spherical mirrors focal length is half the radius of the mirror If object is further than the center of curvature: image is real image is closer to mirror image is inverted image is de magnified If object is between the center of curvature and the focus: image is real image is further from mirror image is inverted image is magnified If object is between the focus and mirror: image is virtual image is erect image is magnified

22 Mirror Equation = x x f o i f is positive for convex mirror, negative for concave mirror. This equation allows us to calculate the location of the image. x i, x o are positive as shown. x o s i s o f Magnification: x i s s i o xi = x o This equation allows us to calculate the size of the image 2003 April 29 80B-Light 22

23 Example: convex mirror = xo xi f B A x o f B A c x i If x o = 5 cm f = 2 cm x i = 1.43 cm 2003 April 29 80B-Light 23

24 Example: Concave mirror x o = 10 cm f = 3 cm x i = cm x o f = xo xi f x i 2003 April 29 80B-Light 24

25 Mirror Equation Examples Given f and x o find x i 1/x i = (1/f) - (1/x o ) = [(x o +f)/x o f] x i = (x o f)/(x o + f) Given x o and x i find f f = (x o x i )/(x o +x i ) Given f and x i find x o x o = (x i f)/(x i + f) Example x o = 49 mm, f = 30 mm (neg for concave mirror) x i = 78 mm s o = 20 mm s i = 32 mm (negative for inverted image) 2003 April 29 80B-Light 25

26 Refraction at spherical surface Refracting properties of spherical lens surfaces (remember, light is pulled towards normal as it enters higher index material) Light is pushed away from normal as it enters lower index material 2003 April 29 80B-Light 26

27 Converging Lenses Converging lenses can focus parallel light Converging lenses generate parallel light from a point source placed at the lens focal point Focal length f related to index n and surface radii r 1 f = n 1 2( ) r 2003 April 29 80B-Light 27

28 Diverging lenses Often, doubly concave lenses Make parallel light diverge 2003 April 29 80B-Light 28

31 lenses The three ray rules for constructing an image from a lens 2003 April 29 80B-Light 31

32 Constructing images with rays and lenses Paraxial rays are used These rays may only yield approximate results Thin lenses only focal length is positive for converging lens focal length is negative for diverging lens Rule 1: A ray parallel to the axis is deflected through F' (or as if it came from F') Rule 2: A ray through the center of the lens continues undeviated Rule 3: A ray to the lens that (when extended, if necessary) passes through F is deflected parallel to the axis Parallel Rays Rule: Rays parallel to each other are imaged onto the same point in the focal plane 2003 April 29 80B-Light 32

33 Ray tracing in a converging lens P P Here, image P is virtual, erect and larger than the object P 2003 April 29 80B-Light 33

34 Visibility in a converging lens P Virtual image only visible from shaded area 2003 April 29 80B-Light 34

35 visibility a) showing how lens is extended for construction and region of visibility b) parallel light focussed onto focal plane and region of visibility 2003 April 29 80B-Light 35

36 Ray tracing a diverging lens Draw three standard rays These will intersect at image 2003 April 29 80B-Light 36

37 Converging lens and sign conventions 2003 April 29 80B-Light 37

38 Lens equation = xo xi f f is positive for converging lens, negative for diverging lens. This allows us to calculate location of the image s s i o = x x i o This equation allows us to calculate the size of the image (magnification) 2003 April 29 80B-Light 38

39 Lens Equation Examples Given f and x o find x i 1/x i = (1/f) - (1/x o ) = [(x o f)/x o f] x i = (x o f)/(x o f) Given x o and x i find f f = (x o x i )/(x o +x i ) Given f and x i find x o x o = (x i f)/(x i f) Example x o = 49 mm, f = 30 mm (positive for converging lens) x i = 77 mm s o = 20 mm s i = 32 mm (negative for inverted image) 2003 April 29 80B-Light 39

40 Constructing imaging from multiple lenses Construct image from 1st lens Add rays that will be useful for the 2nd lens construction (the 3 rays ) Complete ray tracing with these 3 rays through the 2nd lens to find final image 2003 April 29 80B-Light 40

41 Power of lenses The power of a lens is its inverse focal length (how strongly it can focus parallel light) P = 1/f By convention, the units of power are measured in diopters It is numerically equal to the inverse of the focal length of the lens, measured in meters. Examples: A converging lens with a 1m focal length has a power of 1D A lens with a power of -5D is a diverging lens with a focal length of -0.2m A doubly concave lens (diverging) with a focal length of - 2m has a power of -0.5D The powers of adjacent lenses add to form net power 2003 April 29 80B-Light 41
