Exercise 9
A simple model of the human eye ignores its lens entirely. Most of what the eye does to light happens at the outer surface of the transparent cornea. Assume that this surface has a radius of curvature of 6.00 mm and that the eyeball contains just one fluid with a refractive index of 1.40 At what distance behind the cornea a very distant object will be imaged on the retina. Describe the image

A simple model of the human eye ignores its lens entirely. Most of what the eye does to light happens at the outer surface of the transparent cornea. Assume that this surface has a radius of curvature of 7.40 mm and that the eyeball contains just one fluid, with a refractive index of 1.35. Determine the distance from the cornea where a very distant object will be imaged. mm The answer above is the approximate distance from the cornea to...

SOLUTION SET UP The center of curvature of the first surface of the lens is on the outgoing side, so R = +6.0 mm. The center of curvature for the second surface is not on the outgoing side, so R2-_5.5 mn. We solve for f and then use the result in the thin-lens equation. Now we'll apply the thin-lens equation to the eye When light enters your eye, most of the focusing happens at the interface between the air and...

A typical human lens has an index of refraction of 1.41. The lens has a double convex shape, but its curvature can be varied by the ciliary muscles acting around its rim. At minimum power, the radius of the front of the lens is 10.0 cm, while that of the back is 6.00 mm. At maximum power the radii are 6.00 mm and 5.50 mm, respectively. (The numbers can vary somewhat.) If the lens were in air, (a) what would...

Joe is hiking through the woods when he decides to stop and take in
the view. He is particularly interested in three objects: a
squirrel sitting on a rock next to him, a tree a few meters away,
and a distant mountain. As Joe is taking in the view, he thinks
back to what he learned in his physics class about how the human
eye works.

The crystalline lens of the human eye is a double-convex lens made of material having an index of refraction of 1.44 (although this varies). Its focal length in air is about 8.00 mm , which also varies. We shall assume that the radii of curvature of its two surfaces have the same magnitude. (Note: The results obtained in the parts A, B and C are not strictly accurate, because the lens is embedded in fluids having refractive indexes different from...

A typical human lens has an index of refraction of 1.430. The lens has a double convex shape, but its curvature can be varied by the ciliary muscles acting around its rim. At minimum power, the radius of the front of the lens is 10.0 mm, whereas that of the back is 6.00 mm. At maximum power, the radii are 6.50mm and 5.5mm, respectively. If the lens were in air: What would be the maximum power and associated focal length...
