Refraction

Q1) A 35 mm slide with a 24 mm*36 mm picture is projected on a screen placed 12 m from the slide.The image of the slide picture on the screen measures 1.0 m *1.5 m.Determine the location of the projection lens, and its focal length.

Honey as I said to you even I am not very much convinced with this one...

And may be I am wrong altogether.. sorry for confusing you ..

u mean image nd object both are on the same side?

62
Lokesh Verma ·

i mean there is a lens.. and then we keep a slide in between.

the image is formed in front

thus the slide(object) is in between the lens and the image..

there are other kinds of projectors so it all depends..

hw cn u say object is b/w lens and the screen?

62
Lokesh Verma ·

i think there is a mistake in my explanatino above..

The object is in between the lens and the screen..

so things change a bit.. but the essence remains the same :)

ok.......got it

Lokesh Verma ·

oh ..

that is because

u is -ve

v is mu

also the lens is in between the screen and the object

so u+v=distance between screen and object = 12 meters (given)!

-[u+(125/3)u]=12
hw this?

62
Lokesh Verma ·

that is from the lens formula...

1/v+1/u=1/f

where m is magnification11

honey sorry i did not understand the set up of the question :(

what does a "35mm" stand for when we already kow that the dimansion of the picture is 24x36?!!!

62
Lokesh Verma ·

so honey this is kind of obvious .. because

magnification is image height/ object height

so magnification is know

that is also equal ratio of v:u

so v=mu

now the next step is kind of obvious..

Linear Magnification=1000/24=125/3
-[u+(125/3)u]=12
i.e. u=-9/32 m , v=375/32 m
Using 1/v-1/u=1/f
f=27.5 cm
The projection lens should be 28.1 cm from the slide and have focal length=27.5 cm

can u post the solution here ?

lets see what have they done !

Honey Arora ·

ys.......nd after tht wtever they hd done i cldn't understand even a word

62
Lokesh Verma ·

we also know the sum of u and v as the distance ie 12 m.

62
Lokesh Verma ·

first we can say that the lens will be convex because a real image is being formed...

We also know the magnification.

? ·

how have they done this ?

did they use magnification for this ?

Honey Arora ·

it is the dimension of the slide nd i don't think it hv any significance in the sol.

nd i myself hvn't understood the ques so well thtz y i posted it here
