    The document summarizes thin lens equations that can be used to determine image characteristics such as size, location, and whether images are real or virtual. It provides the thin lens equation relating focal length, object distance, and image distance. Examples show how to use the thin lens equation and magnification equation to calculate image size, location, and type from given lens focal length and object distance or magnification. The document concludes with instructing the reader to practice these concepts using sample worksheet questions.

    Thin Lens Equations


    There are two ways to
    determine the characteristics
    of images formed by objects.
    One is using ray diagrams,
    and the other uses algebra.

    The Lens Equations can be


    used to determine image
    size, (height) location
    (distance from lens) and
    whether they are on the
    object side or opposite side
    of lens.
    Lens Terminology
    Distance from object Thin Lens Equations
    do to optical centre
    Distance from image
    di to optical centre

    ho Height of object

    hi Height of image

    Focal length of lens,


    distance from optical
    centre to principal
    f focus (f) * F and F’
    are same distance
    from lens
    Magnification of the
    M lens
    Lens Terminology (Nelson 562)
    The Thin Lens Equation
    • The thin lens equation relates the focal length (f) to
    the object distance (do) and the image distance (di)
    The Thin Lens Equation
    • Understanding signs
    Example 1
    • A converging lens has a focal length of +17 cm. A candle is
    located +48 cm from the lens. What type of image will be
    formed, and where will it be located? (real, +26cm)
    • f = +17cm
    • Do = +48cm
    Example 2
    • A diverging lens has a focal length of -29 cm. A virtual image
    of a marble is located -13 cm in front of the lens. Where is
    the marble (i.e. the object) located? (+24cm)
    • f = -29cm
    • Di = -13cm
    The Magnification Equation
    • This equation relates both the heights and
    distances of the object and image.
    Example 3
    • A toy of height + 8.4 cm is balanced in front of a converging
    lens. An inverted real image of height -23 cm is noticed on the
    other side of the lens. What is the magnification of the lens?
    (-2.7 X)
    • ho = + 8.4 cm
    • hi = -23 cm
    Example 4
    • A small toy building block is placed +7.2 cm in front of a lens.
    An upright, virtual image of magnification +3.2x is noticed.
    Where is the image located? (-23 cm)
    • do = + 7.2 cm
    • M = 3.2x
