A 35-mm single lens reflex (SLR) digital camera is using a lens of focal length 35.0 mm to photograph a person who is 1.80 m tall and located 3.60 m from the lens. (a) How far is the CCD sensor from the lens when the person is in focus?
(b) How tall is the person's image on the CCD sensor?

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) 35.44 mm

b) 17.67 mm

Explanation:

u = Object distance =  3.6 m

v = Image distance

f = Focal length = 35 mm

[tex]h_u[/tex]= Object height = 1.8 m

a) Lens Equation

[tex]\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{35}-\frac{1}{3600}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{v}=\frac{713}{25200} \\\Rightarrow v=\frac{25200}{713}=35.34\ mm[/tex]

The CCD sensor is 35.34 mm from the lens

b) Magnification

[tex]m=-\frac{v}{u}\\\Rightarrow m=-\frac{35.34}{3600}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{h_v}{h_u}\\\Rightarrow -\frac{35.34}{3600}=\frac{h_v}{1800}\\\Rightarrow h_v=-\frac{35.34}{3600}\times 1800=-17.67\ mm[/tex]

The person appears 17.67 mm tall on the sensor
