physics
In order to clearly read a book 16 cm away, a farsighted girl needs an image to be 36 cm from her eyes. What focal length is needed for the lens in her eyeglasses?
physics
Camera lenses are described in terms of their focal length. A 50.0 mm lens has a focal length of 50.0 mm. (a) A camera with a 50 mm lens is focused on an object 4.0 m away. Locate the image. (b) A 980 mm lens is focused on an object 125 m away. Locate the image.
physics
A convex lens is needed to produce an image that is 0.70 times the size of the object and located 28 cm from the lens on the other side. What focal length should be specified?

physics
A ray of light in a tank of water has an angle of incidence of 23°. What is the angle of refraction in air? (Enter 0 if total internal reflection occurs.)
physics
he index of refraction of crown glass is 1.53 for violet light, and it is 1.51 for red light. (a) What is the speed of violet light in crown glass? (b) What is the speed of red light in crown glass?
physics
A diamond's index of refraction for red light, 656 nm, is 2.410, while that for blue light, 434 nm, is 2.450. Suppose white light is incident on the diamond at 32.2°. Find the angles of refraction for red and blue light. red light? blue light?
physics
A thick sheet of plastic, n = 1.500, is used as the side of an aquarium tank. Light reflected from a fish in the water has an angle of incidence of 30.0°. At what angle does the light enter the air?
