Title: Mirrors and Lenses
1Optics
2Regular vs. Diffuse Reflection
- Smooth, shiny surfaces have a regular reflection
Rough, dull surfaces have a diffuse
reflection. Diffuse reflection is when light is
scattered in different directions
3Reflection
- We describe the path of light as straight-line
rays - Reflection off a flat surface follows a simple
rule - angle in (incidence) equals angle out
(reflection) - angles measured from surface normal
(perpendicular)
Laws of reflection
1 )The incident ray,
the reflected ray
and the normal
all lie in the same plane.
2)The incident angel the reflected angel
424-1 mirrors
5An object viewed using a flat mirror appears to
be located behind the mirror, because to the
observer the diverging rays from the source
appear to come from behind the mirror
The image distance behind the mirror equals
the object distance from the mirror The
image height h equals the object height h so
that the lateral magnification
The image has an apparent left-right
reversal The image is virtual, not real!
- 1- Virtual images - light rays do not meet and
the image is always upright or right-side-up and
also it cannot be projected Image only seems to
be there - Real images - always upside down and are formed
when light rays actually meet
6example
- If the angle of incidence of a ray of light is
42owhat is each of the following? - A-The angle of reflection
(42o) - B-The angle the incident ray makes with the
mirror (48o) - C-The angle between the incident ray and the
reflected
(90o)
7 Now you look into a mirror and see the image of
yourself.
a) In front of the mirror.
b) On the surface of the mirror.
C)Behind the mirror.
8Example
A girl can just see her feet at the bottom edge
of the mirror.
Her eyes are 10 cm below the top of her head.
(a) What is the distance between the girl and her
image in the mirror?
? Distance 150 ? 2 300 cm
9Signs Image size and magnification
images can be upright (positive image size h) or
inverted (negative image size h) Define
magnification m h/h Positive magnification
image orientation unchanged relative to
object Negative magnification image inverted
relative to object l m l lt 1 if image is smaller
than object l m l gt 1 if image is bigger than
object l m l 1 if image is same size as object
1024-2 Thin Lenses
11A lens is a transparent material made of glass or
plastic that refracts light rays and focuses (or
appear to focus) them at a point
A converging lens will bend incoming light that
is parallel to the principal axis toward the
principal axis.Any lens that is thicker at its
center than at its edges is a converging lens
with positive f. A diverging lens will bend
incoming light that is parallel to the principal
axis away from the principal axis.Any lens that
is thicker at its edges than at its center is a
diverging lens with negative f
12Rules For Converging Lenses
- Any incident ray traveling parallel to the
principal axis of a converging lens will refract
through the lens and travel through the focal
point on the opposite side of the lens. - Any incident ray traveling through the focal
point on the way to the lens will refract through
the lens and travel parallel to the principal
axis. - An incident ray which passes through the center
of the lens will in effect continue in the same
direction that it had when it entered the lens.

- The image is virtual
- The image is upright
- The image is larger than the object
- The image is on the front side of the lens
19Object Outside 2F
Real inverted diminished
1. The image is inverted, i.e., opposite to the
object orientation.
2. The image is real, i.e., formed by actual
light on the opposite side of the lens.
3. The image is diminished in size, i.e., smaller
than the object.
Image is located between F and 2F
20Example 3. A magnifying glass consists of a
converging lens of focal length 25 cm. A bug is
8 mm long and placed 15 cm from the lens. What
are the nature, size, and location of image.
S 15 cm f 25 cm
S- -37.5 cm
The fact that S- is negative means that the image
is virtual (on same side as object).
21Object Between 2F and F
Real inverted enlarged
1. The image is inverted, i.e., opposite to the
object orientation.
2. The image is real formed by actual light rays
on opposite side
3. The image is enlarged in size, i.e., larger
than the object.
Image is located beyond 2F
22Object at Focal Length F
Parallel rays no image formed
When the object is located at the focal length,
the rays of light are parallel. The lines never
cross, and no image is formed.
23. Example Where must an object be placed to have
unit magnification (
M 1.00) (a) for a converging lens of focal
length 12.0 cm ? (b) for a diverging lens of
focal length 12.0 cm ?

24example A person uses a converging lens that
has a focal length of 12.5 cm to inspect a gem.
The lens forms a virtual image 30.0 cm away.
Determine the magnification. Is the image upright
or inverted?
solution
Since
, the image is upright.
25example A ray that starts from the top of an
object and runs parallel to the axis of the lens,
would then pass through the
a)principal focus of the lens
b)center of the lens
C)secondary focus of the lens
26Example 5 Derive an expression for calculating
the magnification of a lens when the object
distance and focal length are given.
From last equation -s M
Substituting for q in second equation gives . . .
Thus, . . .
27Diverging Thin Lens
Incoming parallel rays DIVERGE from a common
point FOCAL We still call this the point Same f
on both sides of lens Negative focal
length Thinner in center
28Ray Diagrams for Thin Lenses Diverging
- For a diverging lens, the following three rays
are drawn - Ray 1 is drawn parallel to the principal axis and
emerges directed away from the focal point on the
front side of the lens - Ray 2 is drawn through the center of the lens and
continues in a straight line - Ray 3 is drawn in the direction toward the focal
point on the back side of the lens and emerges
from the lens parallel to the principal axis

35The power of lens
The reciprocal of the focal length the power
of lens
If the focal length f is measured in meters
then p measured in diopters if two lenses with
focal length f1 and f2 placed next to each other
are equivalent to a single lens with a focal
length f satisfying
36Spherical Aberration
- Results from the focal points of light rays far
from the principle axis are different from the
focal points of rays passing near the axis - For a mirror, parabolic shapes can be used to
correct for spherical aberration
37Spherical Aberration
With SA
SA free
38Chromatic Aberration
- Different wavelengths of light refracted by a
lens focus at different points - Violet rays are refracted more than red rays
- The focal length for red light is greater than
the focal length - for violet light
- Chromatic aberration can be minimized by the use
of a combination of converging and diverging
lenses
39Multiple lenses can be used to improve
aberrations
40 Lens Aberrations
Chromatic aberration can be improved by combining
two or more lenses that tend to cancel each
others aberrations. This only works perfectly
for a single wavelength, however.
