Questão Responda
What do apertures do? Control the width of a beam of light example: the iris
What do curved mirrors do to light? They control the focus of it
What do filters do to light? Control the strength of light beams and/or change the spectral content of the beam
What is the equation for transmittance (t)? X (light level after filter)/ Xo (light level before filter) Note: always <1
what is the equation for Density (ND)? = -log10 (transmittance) Note: densities can be added
What is the range in nm of visible light? 400-700nm
What is light defined by? 1. Wavelength (λ, nm) 2. Frequency (v, Hz) 3. Energy (E = hv)
What is the speed of light in a vacuum? 3 x 10 (to the power) 8 m/s
What is the equation that determines the speed of light (v) in a material? v = f λ
What are the two assumptions of GEOMETRICAL OPTICS? 1. Approximation that light travels in a straight line through a homogeneous medium. 2. At an interface, light is reflected OR refracted (not both).
How do you work out the sign of an angle?
What is Snell's law? n sin (i) = n' sin(i')
What is the critical angle? When refracted angle = 90 degrees so, i = sin-1(n'/n) Note: only when n'<n eg. glass to air
When does total internal reflection occur? When incident angle is LARGER than the critical angle
What is the equation to find the power of a spherical surface? F = C(n' - n)
How do you find curvature of a spherical surface? C = 1/r
What is the opening equation for paraxial ray tracing? h = -ul Note: closing is h = -u'l'
What is the paraxial refraction equation? n'u' - nu = -hF
1. What is the lens equation? 2. What does it prove about paraxial images? n'/l' - n/l = F Proves all refracted rays are concurrent (Point-point imaging). For every l there is one unique l'.
What is the paraxial transfer equation? h' = h + u'd
Does flipping a lens (horizontally) change it's power? No
How many powers does a thick lens have? FIVE 2 x surface powers (F1 and F2) 1 x equivalent power (F = n'/P'F') 2 x vertex powers (Fv and Fv')
