Chapter 35: Q. 17 (page 1017)

A $6.0 m m$ -diameter microscope objective has a focal length of $9.0 m m$ . What object distance gives a lateral magnification of $- 40$ ?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The object distance is $4 m m$ .

Step by step solution

01

Given Information.

We have given that:

Diameter= $6.0 m m$ ,

focal length= $9.0 m m$ .

We need to find object distance which gives a lateral magnification of $- 40$ .

02

Equation.

$m_{o b j} = 40$

$L = 160 m m$

Object is not close to the focal point $S \approx f_{o b j}$ .

Approximation, lateral magnification is given:

$m_{o b j} = - \frac{1}{f_{o b j}}$ .

03

Calculation

$L = 160 m m$ represent microscope tube length.

Let us find the value of $f_{o b j}$ .

$f_{o b j} = \frac{L}{m_{o b j}}$

$f_{o b j} = \frac{160 m m}{40}$

$f_{o b j} = 4 m m$ .

Mordern microscopes are more likely to use a camera than human viewing. This is accomplished by replacing the eyepiece in figure $35.14$ with a photo-ocular that focuses the image of the objectives to a real image on the sensor of a digital camera. A typical sensor is $22.5 m m$ wide and consists of $5625 4.0 μ m$ wide pixels. suppose a microscopist pairs a $40 X$ objectives with a $2.5 X$ photo-ocular

a. what is the field of view? That is what width on the microscope stage in $m m$ fills the sensor?

b. The photo of a cell is $120 p i x e l s$ in a diameter. what is the cell's actual diameter in $μ m$ ?

A diffraction-limited lens can focus light to a 10 $μ m$ diameter spot on a screen. Do the following actions make the spot diameter larger, make it smaller, or leave it unchanged?

A. Decreasing the wavelength of the light.

B. Decreasing the lens diameter.

C. Decreasing the lens focal length.

D. Decreasing the lens-to-screen distance.

A converging lens with a focal length of $40 c m$ and a diverging lens with a focal length of $- 40 c m$ are $160 c m$ apart. A $2 c m$ tall object is $60 c m$ in front of the converging lens.

a. Use ray tracing to find the position and height of the image. Do this accurately using a ruler or paper with a grid, then make measurements on your diagram.

b. Calculate the image position and height. Compare with your ray-tracing answers in part a.

A microscope with a tube length of $180 m m$ achieves a total magnification of $800 X$ with a $40 X$ objectives and a $20 X$ eye piece. The microscope is focused for viewing with a related eye. how far is the sample from the objective lens?

A common optical instrument in a laser laboratory is a beam expander. One type of beam expander is shown in FIGURE P $35.29$ . The parallel rays of a laser beam of width w1 enter from the left.

a. For what lens spacing d does a parallel laser beam exit from the right?

b. What is the width w2 of the exiting laser beam?
