24.1 Combinations of LensesWith lenses in combination, the image formed by one lens is the object for the next lens.
The thin lens equation still applies.

=+ p is the object distance, q is the image distance, f is the focal length and s is the distance between the lenses.
It is possible to have the object for the second lens be virtual (p2<0); here the image formed by the first lens is beyond the second lens.

The magnification of a combination of lenses is just the product of the magnifications for the individual lenses.

Example: A converging and a diverging lens, separated by a distance of 30.0 cm, are used in combination. The converging lens has f1 = 15.0 cm and the diverging lens has an unknown focal length. An object is placed at 20.0 cm in front of the converging lens; the final image is virtual and is formed 12.0 cm before the diverging lens. What is the focal length of the diverging lens?

24.2 The Camera
7
A camera forms a real, inverted image. For far away objects, the film must be placed one focal length from the lens.
8
24.3 The Eye
The lens is at a fixed distance from the retina (unlike in some cameras where this is adjustable). The lens has a variable focal length, which is adjusted to keep the image distance (q) constant as the object distance (p) varies.
9
The near point is the closest distance from your eye that an object can be seen clearly. For a normal eye this distance is 25 cm.
Refractive power of a lens is defined as:
The far point is farthest distance from your eye that an object can be seen clearly. For a normal eye this distance is ∞.
fP 1=
where f is the focal length of the lens; typical units of P are diopters (1D = 1 m-1).
10
For a near sighted (myopic) person, light rays converge before they strike the retina.
A diverging lens is placed in the light path. This creates a virtual image closer to your eye than the actual object is.
11
For a far sighted (hyperopic) person, light rays converge after they strike the retina.
A converging lens is placed in the light path. This creates a virtual image farther from your eye than the actual object is.
12
Example: If Harry has a near point of 1.5 m, what focal length contact lenses does he require?
The near point refers to the closest distance an object can be to see it clearly, in this case 1.5 m. A normal eye has a near point of 25 cm. These corrective lenses must take an object at 25 cm and form a virtual image at a distance of 1.5 m.

24.4 The Simple Magnifier
For an object to look bigger the image of it formed on the retina must be made bigger.
The farther an object is from your eye, the smaller it will look.
Using the triangles in the figure, the angular size θ of an object is:

The largest angular size an object can have and still be seen clearly is when it is placed at your near point.

N is the near point for a person (typically 25 cm) and f is the focal length of the lens used in the magnifier.

24.5 The Compound Microscope
The objective lens forms an enlarged real image here.
Two converging lenses are used to produce a highly magnified image.
The eyepiece is used to view this image.
18
The eyepiece is used as a magnifier; the image formed by the objective is placed at the focal point of the eyepiece. The total magnification is the product of the individual magnifications:

Example: A microscope has an objective lens of focal length 5.00 mm. The objective forms an image 16.5 cm from the lens. The focal length of the eyepiece is 2.80 cm.
(a) What is the distance between the lenses?
Using the figure, the distance between the lenses is d = feye + qo = 2.80 cm + 16.5 cm = 19.3 cm.
(b) What is the angular magnification? The near point is 25.0 cm.

24.6 The Telescope
A telescope is a combination of lenses and/or mirrors used to collect a large amount of light and bring it to a focus.
