the sum of the power of the two surfaces
2
New cards
equation for thin lens power
F=F1+F2
3
New cards
what can you deduce mathematically about thin lenses
the image position
4
New cards
what are the same in thin lenses
n and n'
5
New cards
what is the effect of n and n' being the same
F and F' have identical focal lengths
6
New cards
Define: Ray Tracing
graphical construction of an image
7
New cards
when are primary and secondary focal lengths the same
when n and n' are the same
8
New cards
what is the power of thin lenses in contact
add the powers together
9
New cards
what is the emergent light at F2, of lenses separated by distance called
back vertex power
10
New cards
if multiple lenses separated are brought together, what has to be changed
the power of a lens so the focus remains at F'
11
New cards
what does Fe stand for
equivalent power
12
New cards
