Different writers use svavessions, bur most of them prefer ‘Coordinate Geometry Sign Convention’. It states as Gr Sess OF the lens is taken as origin and principal axis of the lens as X-axis. A line passing S55 optical centre and perpendicular to the principal axis is taken as Y-axis. Cs2nces are measured from the optical centre along the principal axis and perpendicular to ances measured to the right of the optical centre (along +X-axis) are taken as positive and nces measured to the left of optical centre (along -X-axis) are taken as negative. tances measured upward from principal axis are taken as positive and those measured Gownwerd are taken as negative. to this convention, the radius of curvature of a convex surface and the focal length of a conver lens are positive, while those of a concave surface and a concave lens are negative.

The radii of curvature of these surfaces may be equal or different. (v) Plano-concave : Its one surface is plane and the other is concave [Fig. 4(b)]. (vi) Convexo-concave (or Concave Meniscus) : Its one stirface is convex and the other is concax [Fig. 4(c)]. The radii of curvature of these surfaces are different. It is thinner in the middle. The line joining the centres of curvature of the surfaces of the lens is called the ‘principal axis' ofthe lex 5. Converging and Diverging Actions of Lenses We can consider a lens as made up of large number of different small-angled prisms. In a convex lenstit base of each of these prisms is towards the principal axis of the lens [Fig. 5(a)], while in a concave ks it is away from the principal axis [Fig. 5(b)]. + We know that a light ray passing through a prism is deviated towards the base of the prism. Tis deviation of the light ray increases as the angle of the prism increases. Hence, the rays falling 0%? convex lens, after refraction at both the surfaces of prisms, bend towards the principal axis of the ess Greater the distance of a prism from the principal axis, greater is its angle and greater is the devi? produced by it in the light ray. Hence, the light rays after bending through different a8 collect at one point (Fig. 5(a)]. Thus, the action of a convex lens is to collect the light rays at o™ point. Hence, this lens is called ‘converging’ lens. On the other hand, the rays falling on a concave es after refraction at both the surfaces of the lens, become more separated [Fig. 5(b)]. Thus, a cone" lens produces spreading in the light rays. Hence, this lens is called ‘diverging’ lens. jon of ght Spherteat Surtyruy ca lanseg 4 ay te] ES yaaa one sepa, (hy (Fig. 6) se thickness of a Lene fy mensured hy the J eas, If the thickness of the lens is negliihte shen the lens fs called « thin’ lens; y MANN OF the principal axis hervenn the svn surfaces of the Wn comparison to the radii of curvature of the curged wuiface, hls chapter by lens ve mean v thin jens, some Definitions Related to the Lens (1 Optical Contre : If ray of light is ine) ‘dent on a lens sucl emergent ray 8 parallel to the incident ray, then the appears to Intersect, the prineipal axis is enlled the The aptient centre of the len divides the thiekness of the lens bn the satin of the rad of curva of the surfaces ofthe lens, Suppose, for the first susfiaee ofthe Jens the poe Is Py, centne of curvature is, and radius of curvature is 15 and for the second surface the pole js Py, centre of curvature is Cz and radius of curvature is Re [P, O(a) and (b)], 1G be the optical centre of the lens, then coi CP, My that after refraction Wiveuph the lens, Oe point aL which the refracted nay interserts, oF ‘opnical centre’ of the lens, “SoA ry - @ by (Fig. 6) Since, in bi-convex and bi-concave lenses, Ry and Ry aire on the opposite sides relative to the optic cal centre G therefore, CP; and CPs are also on opposite sides, In other words, the optical centre of these lenses Is ‘inside’ the lenses, I the radii of eurvature of both the surfaces ofthe Jens are equal (Ry = 2), then GPy = Pa, That va middle point of the lens {s also the optical centre o' the lens. the For the rays passing through the optical centre of the convex tans CONCAVE Lent lens, the incident and the emergent rays are parallel tay aD but there is a lateral displacement between them, Prcwas ris Won — Nootan tse «ligntacement deerensos as the thickness of the lens decreases and is negligible ina thin My, lens, 5, vay passing through the optical contre of a ‘thin’ lens goes straight without any deviation gH, 0 a (ig.

Thus, a he CP, Ry” or Py = 0. ‘That is, the optical centre C of these lenses is situated at the 7 pole of the curved surface of the lens (Fig. 8(a) and (b)]- mn In concavo-convex and convexo-concave lenses, Ry and Ry are on the same side of the lens. Therefore, in them, CP, and CP, will also be on the same side of the optical centre C. Clearly, in these lenses, the optical centre will be ‘outside’ the lens, Since, the radius of curvature P2C2 (= Ry) of the more curved surface is less than the radius of curvature PyC; (= Ry) of the less curved surface, therefore, according to the formula a oe the optical centre C will be nearer to the more curved surface [Fig. 9 (a) and (b)]. To locate the position of C, C; Ay and C2A2 are drawn from the centres of curvature Cy and C of en surfaces upto the corresponding surfaces. Now, the line joining A, and Ay is extended. The poin: wie: the extended line cuts the principal axis, is the position of the optical centre of the lens. (il) Focus and Focal Length : The rays starting from a fixed point on the principal axis of a lens, or appearing to go towards a fixed point on the axis, after refraction through the lens become parallel to the principal axis. This point is called the ‘first focus’ of the lens. In Fig. 10 (a) and (b), the point F’ is the first focus of the Jens. In a convex lens the rays starting from F” [Fig. 10(a)] and in a concave lens the rays (Fig. 10) appearing to go towards F’ [Fig. 10(b)] emerge from the lens parallel to the principal axis. The dis of the first focus from the optical centre of the lens is called the ‘first focal-length’ ofthe lens. In FX. 10 and (b), the distance CF" is the first focal length f" of the lens.

It is used to make a lens of required focal Jength from glass of a given refractive index. Hence, its name. in deriving this formula, we adopt the coordinate geometry sign convention and make the following assumptions : (The lens is thin so that the distances measured from the poles of its two surfaces can be taken as equal to the distances from its optical centre. (i) The aperture of the lens is small. (iii) The object is a point-object placed on the principal axis of the lens. (iv) The incident and the refracted rays make small angles with the principal axis. Let us consider a convex lens made of glass of absolute refractive index nz placed in a rarer medium of absolute refractive index nj. Let P) and Po be the poles, C; and C. the centres of curvature and Ry(= PyCy) and Ry (= P2Cp) the radii of curvature of its first and second surfaces respectively (Fig. 12).

A convex lens behaves as a convex lens on being immersed in the liquid. For example, if a glass lens is immersed in water, then the focal length of the lens increases. If the lens is immersed in a liquid whose refractive index is equal to the refractive index of the material of the lens, that is, glass (qm = aM)» then Eee3E Nootm so, eeinfinite, Now, the fens will behave just like q ny PA Te, ifa flint glass Fens is immersed in carn eg Subphigh that is, the focal length of the lens becom plate and will become invisible.

Hence, tegen ee -o{2+Z). pose a) ee It is clear from these formulae that the focal length of a lens of large radii of curvature is large and. ofa lene of small radii of curvature is small. In other words, the focal length of a thin lens is large 2 that of a thick lens is small. If the refractive index n of the material of a lens is 1.5 and the radii of curvature of both the surfaces, the lens are equal (Rj = Ry = R), then from the above equations, f=R and f =~ R respectively. Ths, the focal length of such a convex or concave lens is equal to the radius. of curvature of the lens, If one surface of the convex, or the concave, lens is plane, then for n = 1.5, the value of f will be 22 Thus, for a lens of n = 1.5, the value of f cannot be less than R. ich wy 8 tm ™ \ 9. Image Formation by Thin Lenses 2 Image formation by thin lenses for v4ffois positions of the object takes place according to & following laws : (i) An incident ray parallel to the axis of a lens, after refraction through the lens, either goes throught second focus (in convex lens) or appears to come from the second focus (in concave lens). Gi) An incident ray passing through the first focus of the lens (in convex lens), or appearing #0 towards the first focus (in concave lens), after refraction through the lens, becomes parallel 0 principal axis. Gil) A ray passing through the optical centre of the lens goes straight without any deviation © displacement. (iv) Those incident rays which are not parallel to the principal axis but are parallel to one anothes - refraction through the lens, either meet at a point in the focal plane of the lens (in convex lens) appear to come from a point in the focal plane (in concave lens).

Hence, they will meet at the second focus F of the lens where the image 7 of O will be formed. Therefore, II is the image of the complete object OO". This image isin the second focal-plane of the lens and is real, inverted and very small as compared to the object. {i The Object ts In between Infinity and 2F Distance (Fig. 14) : Suppose an object OO’ is placed rpendicular to the Principal axis infront of the lens, between infinity and 2 f.

This image at a distance less than 2f on the other side of the lens. Image is real, inverted and smaller than the object. Fig. 14) (il) The Object is at 2f Distance (Fig. 15) : If the object 00’ is placed at a distance 2 f infront of the lens by drawing the rays according to the laws, a real and inverted image I’ of the same size as the object is obtained at a distance 2f on the other side of the lens.

This image is formed on the other side of the lens at a distance more than 2f. The image is real, inverted and larger in size than the object.

Another ray OC passes through optical centre of the lens undeviated. These two refracted rays, when extended in the backward direction appear to meet atl” behind the lens. Thus, I’ is the virtual image of 0”. A perpendicular IT drawn from I’ on the principal axis is the complete image of the object 00’. This image is formed on the same side of the lens as that of object. It is virtual, erect and larger than the object. Here it i to be noted that as the object is shifted from infinity towards the focus of the lens, its image get shifted from its focus towards infinity on the other side yp lens, When the object is in between the focus and optical centre the image is formed between fae y (Fig. 18) and F on the same side of lens as that of object. Formation of Image by a Concave Lens Suppose an object 00’ (Fig. 19) is placed normally on the principal axis of a thin concave lens. From 0’, an incident ray O'A parallel to the principal axis, after refraction through the lens, appears to come from the second focus F. A second incident ray OC which passes through the optical centre, goes straight. Both these rays, on producing backwards, intersect each other at the point I’. Hence I’ is the virtual image of the point O'. A perpendicular I’ drawn from I’ on the principal axis is the complete image of the object 00". This image is formed on the same side of the lens as that of the object. 0: %9) Itis virtual, erect and diminished. For every position of an object the image formed by the concave en is always vircual, erect and diminished . It is formed in the same side as that of object between the lens and focus. But if the object is placed at the focus of a concave lens, the image is formed just in the mid way of lens and focus.

Power of Lens ‘We cen consider a lens as made up of a number of small-angled prisms. In a convex lens the bess ¢ the prisms are towards the axis, while in a concave lens they are away from the axis. Ina Prism, a rays Gevisted towards the base. Therefore, when light rays parallel to the principal axis fall on 2 lens, they exe beat towards the axis in 2 convex lens, and away from the axis in a concave lens. Thus, the Purpose of Jens is to bend the light rays. The more it bends the light rays, the greater is its power. A lens of small focal length bends the light rays more than a lens of larger focal length. Thus, smaller the focal legs of 2 lens; greater is its power The power (P) of @ thin lens is equal to the reciprocal of its focal length (f) measured in metre. a F (metre) ibe SI unk of the power of lens is ‘diopure’.

Since, the rays emerging from the lens were falling normally on the miror, it means that they were converging towards the centre of curvature C of the mirror. Hence, after removing the mirror, the rays will meet at C [Fig, 25 (b)], where the real image I of O will be formed by the lens located by adjusting the position of an image-pin such that the image J and the image-pin are mutually non-parallax. The difference between the positions of the mirror and the image-pin is the radius of curvature R of the mirror. The focal length of the mirror is R/ 2. NCERT PROBLEMS ———$—$———————— 1.
