Multiple Lenses • We determine the effect of a system of lenses by considering the
image of one lens to be the object for the next lens.
For the first lens: s1 = +1.5, f1 = +1
For the second lens: s2 = +1, f2 = -4
f = +1 f = -4

Multiple Lenses • Objects of the second lens can be virtual. Let’s move the
second lens closer to the first lens (in fact, to its focus):
For the first lens: s1 = +1.5, f1 = +1
For the second lens: s2 = -2, f2 = -4
Note the negative object distance for the 2nd lens.

• Since the formula for the magnification is equal to the product of the magnifications of each lens (m = m 1 m 2), you might think that interchanging the lenses does not change the overall magnification.• This argument misses the point that the magnification of a lens is not a property of the lens, but depends also on the object distance!• Consider the ray shown which illustrates that the magnification must be < 1!

The Eye• The “Normal Eye”
– Far Point distance that relaxed eye can focus onto retina = – Near Point closest distance that can be focused on to the retina = 25 cm
2.5cm
25cm
This is called “accommodation”Diopter: 1/f Eye = 40 diopters, accommodates by about 10%, or 4 diopters

Therefore the normal eye acts as a lens with a focal length which can vary from 2.5 cm (the eye diameter) to 2.3 cm which allows objects from 25 cm to be focused on the retina!
An intuitive way to view eye correctionsNear-sighted eye is elongated, image of distant object forms in front of retina
Add diverging lens, image forms on retina
Far-sighted eye is short, image of close object forms behind retina
Add converging lens, image forms on retina
Does the orientation of the lens matter?• Not according to our simple lens equation
assumes paraxial rays• In reality…
As a general rule, it is better to split the refraction at both interfaces.

Apparent Magnification• Our sense of the size of an object is determined by the size of
image on the retina. – Consequently, the apparent magnification factor of a lens is just
the ratio of the angular size with the lens to the angular size without the lens.
– Use lens to make close up image fall in focus range of eye

Microscope• Larger magnifications than are possible with a single lens can
be obtained by combining lenses.• For example, the compound microscope consists of two
lenses, a short focal length objective lens and an eyepiece:
I1
I2• The object, placed just beyond the focal point of the objective, produces a real, inverted image (I1) at a position which is just inside the focal length of the eyepiece.

virtual image (I2) which is seen as magnified as in the previous slide.

Telescopes• The purpose of a telescope is to gather light from distant objects
and produce a magnified image.– Refracting telescopes use lenses so that the objects can be viewed
directly.» As in the microscope, we have two lenses, an objective and an
eyepiece. » Since the object is at a large distance, the objective lens should
have a long focal length to obtain a large magnification.– Reflecting telescopes use mirrors to create the image
» Most astronomical telescopes are reflectors, since the most important feature for these telescopes is the light gathering ability, and it is easier to make a large mirror than it is to make large lenses.

Hubble Space TelescopeThe HST was launched in 1990; it was discovered that a lens had been ground incorrectly, so all images were blurry!A replacement “contact lens”, COSTAR, was installed in 1993.
Aperture of primary mirror: 2.4 m (~8 ft.)Mass of primary mirror: 828 kg (~1800 lbs)
Before COSTAR After COSTAR
(Now, Hubble’s instruments have built-in corrective optics, so
COSTAR is no longer needed.)
Summary
• Multiple Lenses– The image of one lens is the object for the next lens.
• The Eye– Corrective lenses place image of object at a point where person
is able to view it, when he/she cannot properly focus on the object itself.
• Optical Instruments– Use multiple lenses to build microscopes, telescopes, etc….
