A thin lens with a focal length of 6.0 cm is used as a simple magnifier by (a) what angular magnification is obtainable with the

lens if the object is at the focal point? (b) when an object is examined through the lens, how close can it be brought to the lens? assume that the image viewed by the eye is at the near point, 25.0 cm from eye, and that the lens is very close to the eye.

Answer:

4.167

4.83871 cm

Explanation:

u = Object distance

v = Image distance = 25 cm

f = Focal length = 6 cm

Angular magnification is given by

m=\frac{25}{f}\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{25}{6}\\\Rightarrow m=4.167

The angular magnification of the lens is 4.167

Lens equation

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{-25}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{25}=\frac{1}{u}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{u}=\frac{31}{150}\\\Rightarrow u=4.83871\ cm

The closest distance by which the object can be examined is 4.83871 cm

Can inserting a resistor in a circuit produce an effect similar to a short circuit?
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

By ‘inserting’ you means to putting a resistor in series. In this case, no, there is no resistance that would produce the same effect as a short circuit.

If you adding a resistor in parallel with the circuit, then if it had a low value It might be similar to a short circuit. I
