    The Lens Equation

    Uploaded by

    Victor Hernandez Evangelista
    This document discusses lens equations and how to determine image characteristics formed by lenses. It defines key lens terms like focal length and image distance and signs for convex and concave lenses. An example problem demonstrates using the lens equation to calculate image distance and size given object distance and lens focal length. Group activities provide additional practice problems for learners to solve. Key lesson objectives are determining quantitative image characteristics and proper lens selection/use.

    THE LENS

    EQUATION
    YOU RAYS ME UP.
    1. Graph the image using the ray diagram.
    2. Identify the following in the formed image by
    lens:
    Location
    Orientation
    Size
    Types
    LESSON OBJECTIVES:

    At the end of the lesson, learners should be


    able to:
    Determine the quantitative characteristics of
    image formed by lenses.
    Derive the lens equation.

    Promote proper selection and use of lenses.


    THE SIGN COVENTIONS FOR
    LENSES
     • f is + if the lens is a double convex lens (converging lens)

     • f is - if the lens is a double concave lens (diverging lens)

     • q is + if the image is a real image and located behind the lens


     • q is - if the image is a virtual image and located on the object’s
    side of the lens
     • h’ is + if the image is an upright image (and therefore, also
    virtual)
     • h’ is - if the image an inverted image (and therefore, also real)
    THEREFORE
    If the focal length and the distance of the
    image is POSTIVE (+) and the image height
    is NEGATIVE (-) the lens is CONVEX

    If the focal length and the distance of the


    image is NEGATIVE (-)and the image height
    is POSITIVE(+) the lens is CONCAVE
    Lens Equation
    𝟏 𝟏 𝟏
    = +
    𝒇 𝒒 𝒑
    where:
    f - focal length or distance from the mirror and the
    focal point,F
    p - distance of the object from the lens
    q - distance of the image from the lens
    Sample Problem
    A 5.00-cm tall light bulb is placed at a distance of
    45.0 cm from a convex lens having a focal length
    of 10.5 cm. Determine the image distance and
    the image size.
    Given: Find:
    height of the object, h = 5.00 cm distance of the image, q = ?
    distance of the object, p = 45.0 cm height of the image, h’ = ?
    focal point, f = 10.5 cm
    GROUP ACTIVITY
    An object is placed 33.7 cm
    from the diverging lens with a
    focal length of -10.7 cm.
    Determine the image distance.
    What is the image distance and
    image size if a 5.00-cm tall light
    bulb is
    placed a distance of 45.5 cm from
    a convex lens having a focal
    length of 15.4 cm?
    What is the image distance and
    image size if a 3.00-cm tall light bulb
    is placed a distance of 30.5 cm from
    a diverging lens having a focal
    length of -10.2 cm?
    Determine the image distance
    and image height for a 8.00-cm
    tall object placed 46.5 cm from
    a convex lens having a focal
    length of 16.0 cm.
    GUIDE QUESTIONS:

    1.What particular devices or materials


    do you use that has lens?
    2.How can you use your
    understanding of lenses in selecting
    and using devices/ materials with
    lens?
    Answer the problem below.

    A 3.10-cm diameter coin is placed a


    distance of 25.0 cm from a concave
    lens that has a focal length of -11.0 cm.
    Determine the image distance and
    the diameter of the image.

    you!!!
