Focal Length
For a thin double convex lens, all parallel rays will be focused to a point referred to as the principal focal point. The distance from the lens to that point is the principal focal length f of the ...
Focal length of diverging lens
Animation enables the object position, in front of a diverging lens, to be altered. Exercise to calculate focal length, no check on answer.
Concave mirror
Problem to find the focal length of a concave mirror from a ray diagram. Object position can be altered.
Convex mirror
Problem to find the focal length of a convex mirror from a ray diagram. Object position can be altered.
Thin Lens and mirrors
A ray diagram to show image formation with thin lenses or mirrors. The focal length and object distance can be changed.
Converging lens
Animation enables the object position, in front of a converging lens, to be altered. Exercise to find the focal length, no check on answer.
Online Depth of Field Plotter
Nicholas Sushkin' s online calculator will compute the depth of field for a photographic instrument given the focal length and the f-stop data.
Fresnel Lens
Faced with the need to construct a large lens for a lighthouse of appropriate focal length, but unable to support the large weight of a double convex lens of that size, French physicist Augustin ...
Real Image Formation
If a luminous object is placed at a distance greater than the focal length away from a convex lens, then it will form an inverted real image on the opposite side of the lens. The image position may ...
