- Figure P23.28 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 n1 sin θ1 = n2 sin02 . For paraxial rays, we assume θ1 and θ2 are small, so we may write n1 tan θ1 = n2 tan θ2. The magnification is defined as M =h′/h. Prove that the magnification is given by M = −n1 q/n2p.arrow_forwardThe drawing shows a rectangular block of glass (n = 1.52) surrounded by a liquid with n = 1.59.
