A lens forms a sharp image on a screen. ...

A lens forms a sharp image on a screen. On inserting a parallel sided glass slab between the lens and the screen, it is found necessary to move the screen a distance `d` away the lens in order for the image to be sharp again. If the refractive index of the material of the slab is `mu`, the thickness of the slab is

A lens with a focal length of f=30 cm produces on a screen a sharp image of an object that is at a distance of a=40 cm from the lens. A plane parallel plate with thickness of d=9 cm is placed between the lens and the object perpendicular to the optical axis of the lens. Through what distance should the screen be shifted for the image of the object to remain distinct? The refractive index of the glass of the plate is mu=1.8.

An object 240 cm in front of a lens forms a sharp image on a screen 12 cm behind the lens. A glass slab 1 cm thick, having refractive index 1.50 is placed between the lens and the screen with its refracting faces perpendicular to the principal axis of the lens. (a) By how much distance the object must be moved so as to again cast a sharp image on the screen? (b) Another identical glass slab is interposed between the object and the lens. How much further the object shall be moved so as to form a sharp image on the screen.
