Hint: As discussed in class, consider similar triangles from the lens to the focal point and the

focal point to the image plane. There are 2 pairs of similar triangles, one for the positive and

negative focal point. Then show that

Hint: Consider rays coming from the top and bottom of the lens that would be in focus at

What happens when they hit the image plane at ?

  1. A typical human eyeball is 2.4 cm in diameter and contains roughly 150,000,000 receptors. Ignoring the fovea, assume that the receptors are uniformly distributed across a hemisphere (it is actually closer to 160°).

    1. How many receptors are there per mm2?

    2. Mars has a diameter of 8,000 km and an average distance from Earth of 225,000,000 km. Using a value of f equal to the eye’s diameter, on how many receptors does the image of Mars fall?
