Consider a beam of light from the left entering a prism of apex angle as shown in Figure P34.34. Two angles of incidence, 1, and 3, are shown as Hell as two angles of refraction, 2 and 4. Show that = 1 + 3. Figure P34.34
Figure P35.20 (page 958) shows a curved surface separating a material with index of refraction n1 from a material with index n2. The surface forms an image I of object O. The ray shown in red passes through the surface along a radial line. Its angles of incidence and refraction are both zero, so its direction does not change at the surface. For the ray shown in blue, the direction changes according to Snells law, n1 sin 1 = n2 sin 2. For paraxial rays, we assume 1, and 2 are small, so we may write n1 tan 1 = n2 tan 2. The magnification is defined as M = h/h. Prove that the magnification is given by M = n1q/n2p. Figure P35.20
