As shown in Figure \(\PageIndex. \nonumber \] Example \(\PageIndex to find the focal length of the magnifying lens. Solution a. The required linear magnification is the ratio of the desired image diameter to the diamond’s actual diameter (Equation \ref \nonumber \] Significance Note that a greater magnification is achieved by using a lens with a smaller focal length. We thus need to use a lens with radii of curvature that are less than a few centimeters and hold it very close to our eye. This is not very convenient. A compound microscope, explored in the following section, can overcome this drawback.

You might have used a microscope in the science lab for magnifying the micro-size object. It basically magnifies tiny objects and we can see the enlarged image of that object. Telescopes are used by scientists to the planets and stars which are far- far away from the earth. You might see the spectacles used by old people. The glass used in those spectacles is thick. These are examples of lenses. The image formed by the lens can be smaller or larger. The size of the image depends upon the type of lens that is being used. It also depends upon how far the object is placed in front of the lens. We will discuss all in this article. A piece of transparent glass bounded by two surfaces, at least one of which is a curved surface, which concentrates or disperses the light rays when passes through them by refraction is called the lens. A Converging lens (Convex lens) Terminologies related to Spherical Lens • Pole (p): It is the middle point of the spherical lens or mirror. • Centre of curvature (C): It is the centre of the sphere from which the mirror is formed. • Principal axis: It is the lines passing through the pole and the centre of curvature of the lens. • Principal focus (F): It is the point at which a narrow beam of light converges or diverges. • Focal length (f): It is the distance between the focus and the poles of the mirror. Image formed by the Convex Lens There are six different cases for the image formation by a convex lens, which are discussed as: When an object is at...

What is Convex Lens? The convex lens is a lens that converges light rays that are parallel to its principal axis (i.e. converges incident rays towards the principal axis) and is relatively thick in the center and thin at the lower and upper edges. The edges are curved outward, not inward. It is used in front of the eye to sharply bend incoming light, causing the focal point to shorten and the light to focus properly on the retina. What is Convex Lens: Principle When light passes through a convex lens, it is bent or refracted towards the center of the lens. The amount of bending depends on the curvature of the lens and the angle of incidence of the light. The angle of incidence is the angle between the incoming light ray and the normal, which is an imaginary line perpendicular to the surface of the lens. The bending of light causes the light rays to converge towards a focal point on the opposite side of the lens. The distance between the center of the lens and the focal point is called the focal length. The focal length of a convex lens depends on the curvature of the lens and the refractive index of the material it is made of. Convex Lens Called a Converging Lens? • A converging lens is one that converges a parallel beam of light on a point known as the principal focus. Related Topics: What are Lenses Lenses are spherical materials with one or more spherical surfaces. The two types of lenses bounded by two spherical surfaces are convex lenses (or converging lenses) and con...

One theme of the Applying the Three Rules of Refraction In this section of Lesson 5, we will investigate the method for drawing ray diagrams for objects placed at various locations in front of a rules of refraction for a double convex lens: • 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 that passes through the center of the lens will in effect continue in the same direction that it had when it entered the lens. rules of refraction for converging lenses. We will use these three rays through the remainder of this lesson, merely because they are the easiest rays to draw. Certainly two rays would be all that is necessary; yet the third ray will provide a check of the accuracy of our process. Step-by-Step Method for Drawing Ray Diagrams The method of drawing ray diagrams for double convex lens is described below. The description is applied to the task of drawing a ray diagram for an object located beyond the 1. Pick a point on the top of the object and draw three incident rays traveling towards the lens. Using a straight edge, accurately draw one ray so that it passes exactly through the focal point on the way to the lens. Draw the second ray such that it travels exactly parallel to ...
