   formulas in optics   4 Nickels awarded!
Tagged with:       [Post New]posted on 16 Apr 2007 11:09:13 IST    
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

gud work himanshu...bt let me add sum more...
when some mirrors are placed parallel 2 each other then d second image in each mirror is the brightest...

if three mirrors are placed mutually perpendicular to each other then no of images formed is seven..
