Lecture

Lens Surfaces and Image Formation

Description

This lecture covers the process of finding the position and nature of an image formed by a lens with two surfaces, considering the thickness of the lens. Starting with the formula for spherical surfaces, the instructor demonstrates how to calculate the image position for each surface, resulting in a real and inverted image. By neglecting the lens thickness, the focal length is determined using the thin lens formula, leading to a noticeable shift in the image position.
