2. Data analysis for Exp 10.1 (Refer to the pdf file of “PHY2049L Exp 10 Theory”)
(a) From the provided data in Table 1 calculate s , s , 1/ s and 1/ s , record your data in Table 1.
(b) Copy 1/ s vs 1/ s data from Table 1 and paste them in the columns A and B of an Excel file.
You can search on google to find out how to do plot and fit with Excel.
(c) Plot 1/ s vs 1/ s and fit it with a straight line.
(d) Name the plot and fitting as Fig. 1 which is part of your lab report.
(e) From the fitting parameter to calculate fexp and record it in Table 1.

3. Use graphic method to verify the position ( s ) and size ( h ) of the image in Table 1, and
determine the nature of the image: erect or inverted, enlarged or reduced.

(a) Refer to Fig. 3 (a) in the lab manual, draw a converging lens with an optic axis on a sheet of
white paper. The converging lens in Fig. 3 (a) can be simplified as shown in Fig. 2.

Converging lens

(b) To make a ray diagram showing the formation of the image we need to use the following data
in Table 1: h, fexp , and the value of s in the row #6 of the column “Calculation” in Table 1.
Note: The top row of Table 1 is row #1.
(c) Make a scale drawing (use 1 mm to represent 1 cm) to locate the positions of the two focal
points (F1 & F2 ) using the value of fexp , also locate the object position using the s value. Then,
at the object position draw the object with height h using the same draw scaling.
(d) Draw a ray diagram using two principal rays: Parallel ray and Central ray similar to Fig. 3 (a) in
the lab manual to find the image formed by the converging lens.
(e) Label the quantities h, s, h, s in your ray diagram.
(f) Name your complete ray diagram as Fig. 2 which will be a part of your lab report.
(g) Measure the values of image position and size ( s & h ) from your Fig. 2 and record the data
in Table 2.
(h) Calculate m  h / h using the measured h and record it in Table 2.
(i) From your Fig. 2 to determine the nature of the image.
 Erect or inverted?
 Enlarged or reduced?
Record above results in Table 2.
