some formulas in optics
 
1)
 = 2pi (x) / lamda
 
 
 = phase diff.  ................del. x is path diff.
 
 
 
 
2)normal shift
 
S = t (1 -   1/).....................( is not whole divided)
 
Swater = t/4
 
Sglass = t/3
 
 
 
3)wen a lens is cut into 2 = parts  perpendicular to its principal axis , focal length gets doubled and power gets halved
 
 
4)wen a lens is cut into 2 = parts parallel to its P. Axis , no change in focal length or power takes place
 
 
5)Goggles donot hav any power coz R1 = R2 = R for them
 
so p = ( - 1) (1/R1 - 1/R2)
 
 
 
 
6)wen a lens is submerged in a denser medium its focal length inc and power dec.
 
 
7)wen a lens is submerged in water its focal length inc by 4 times and power dec. by 4 times
 
 
 
8)wen a lens is submerged in a medium of greater R.I then its nature reverses
 
 
 
9)Min. length of a plane mirror reqired to see full image of the object of ht. 'h' is h/2
 
 
10)*  formula to calculate no. of images frmed b/w 2 mirrors is given by
 
n = 360/theta - 1
 
eg. if theta is 60.
then n = 5

hey himanshu.....
its a nicely composed form of optics formulae...but i think..in the 10th formulae...you must apply the condition as well...i.e if the angle
between the two mirrors is even then it is as...n = 360/theta - 1
and if the angle is odd then its like...n=360/theta.
and there is a reson behind it as well....with the even angle....we have the last image superposed at the object itself....so, we don't consider it as an object...as the image cannot be distinguished from that of the object...
rest...it seems good..
thanks...
hope this helps...and you would correct it..
keep smiling..........
