Sign (pos and neg) in thin lens equation

A

positive
i=real, in front of mirror
f=Concave
o= in front

negative

Q

Diopters

A

positive=converging
negative=diverging
p=1/f

17
Q

Diopters

A

units=inverse meters (focal length must be in meters)
f=r/2
-f is directly proportional to r

18
Q

The eye

A

cornea acts as a lens

  • Mopia- too strong and nearsightdness
  • Hyperopia- farsighted
