Lens
is a curved piece of glass or
some other transparent
material that is used to
refract light.
Types of Lens
 Concave lens (diverging lens)

 Convex lens (converging lens)
Types of Lens
 Concave lens (diverging lens)

- thicker at the edges and thinner in
the center
- forms upright and reduced images
-light tends to diverge at a particular
point called the focal point.
Types of Lens
 Convex lens (converging lens)

- thicker at the center than edges.
-forms real and virtual images
depending on position of the object
-light tends to converge at a particular
point.
Convex Lenses
Thicker in the center

than edges.
› Lens that converges
(brings together) light
rays. The Magnifier
› Forms real images and
virtual images
depending on position
of the object
Concave Lenses
 Lenses that are
thicker at the edges
and thinner in the
center.
› Diverges light rays The De-Magnifier
› All images are
erect and reduced.

Rules
1. Any incident ray traveling
parallel to the principal axis
of a converging lens will
refract through the lens and
travel through the focal point
on the opposite side of the
lens.
2. Any incident ray traveling
through the focal point on
the way to the lens will
refract through the lens
and travel parallel to the
principal axis.

LENS EQUATION
1/f = 1/p + 1/q
f = focal length or distance from the lens and

the F
p = distance of the object from the lens
q = distance of the image from the lens
Lens Equation
… it applies to both concave and
convex lenses.
… in the case of concave lens, the
image always be located on the side
where the object is also located, it is
therefore considered that the value of
image distance , q is negative.
…the focal length, f, in a concave lens is
negative while positive in a convex lens
Magnification Equation
h‘/h = -q/p
h‘= height of the image
h= height of the object
q=distance of the image from the
lens
p=distance of the object from the
lens
Sign Conventions for Lenses
f is positive(+) if the lens is a double convex lens
(converging lens)
f is negative(-) if the lens is a double concave
lens(diverging lens)
q is(+) if the image is real image and located
behind the lens
q is(-) if the image is virtual image and located
on the object’s side of the lens
h‘ is (+) if the image is an upright image and
virtual
h‘ is(-) if the image is an inverted image and real

image size if a 5.00-cm tall light bulb
is placed a distance of 45.5 cm from a
convex lens having a focal length of
15.4 cm?
Sample Problem 2
What is the image distance and
image size if a 3.00-cm tall light bulb
is placed a distance of 30.5 cm from a
diverging lens having a focal length
of -10.2 cm?
Sample Problem 3
Determine the image distance and
image height for a 8.00-cm tall
object placed 46.5 cm from a convex
lens having a focal length of 16.0 cm.
Sample Problem 4
A 3.10-cm diameter coin is placed a
distance of 25 cm from a concave
lens that has a focal length of -11.0
cm. Determine the image distance
and the size of the image
Sample Problem 5
The focal point is located 20 cm
from a double concave lens. An
object is placed 12 cm from the lens.

Activity 9
Lens Equation and

Magnification
Problem 1
Determine the focal length of a
double concave lens that produces
an image that is 16 cm behind the
lens when the object is 28.5 cm from
the lens.
Problem 2
Determine the image distance and
image height for a 5.5 cm tall object
placed 54-cm from a converging lens
having a focal length of 20-cm.
Problem 3
A magnified, inverted image is
located a distance of 38 cm from a
converging lens with a focal length
of 10.0 cm. Determine the object
distance and tell whether the image
is real or virtual.
Problem 4
Determine the focal length of a
diverging lens that produces an
image that is 16 cm from the lens
(and on the object’s side) when the
object is 34 cm from the lens.
Problem 5
The focal point is located 22 cm
from a diverging lens. An object is
placed 10 cm from the lens.
Determine the image distance.
