A raisin1 is held between a thin converging lens and its focal point. In the following questions, the raisin is never moved farther from the lens than the focal point.a. As the raisin is moved away from the lens, towards the focal point, what happens to the size of its image formed by the lens? You may use a principal ray diagram or mathematics (or both!) to support your answer.b. For any position of the raisin between the lens and the focal point, is the image always larger than the raisin, always smaller, or does it depend on the location?

- A thin biconvex lens (lens 1) having a focal length of 50 cm is located 100 cm in front (i.e., to the left) of a thin biconvex lens (lens 2) of focal length 50 cm. A small object is situated 150 cm to the left of the first lens (lens 1). Find the location of image formed by the first lens (lens 1). a. b. Calculate the magnification of the first lens. Find the location of the final image. C. d. Calculate the total magnification for the lenses combination. Describe the properties of the final image.arrow_forwardWhen considering the location of images formed by lenses, we often like to employ ray tracing diagrams. To do this we draw three rays of light and see where they intersect. 1. A ray parallel to the axis refracts through the far focal point. 2. A ray that enters the lens along a line through the near focal point emerges parallel to the axis. 3. A ray through the center of the lens does not bend. This method was shown to you in class for the following situation: An object and converging lenses with the distance to the object being greater than the focal length, do > f. object focal point do focal point Now you will complete the ray tracing diagram for an object that is closer than the focal length: de focal point image Answer the following based on your ray tracing: (a) Is the image real or virtual?
