 Lesson

1 Optical Instruments

The human eye is an organ in our body that helps us to see. Simple things
like watching a butterfly flutters its wings across the fields, the colors of rainbow
painted on the sky, or a child’s dress printed with colorful florals can add to the
fantastic experiences that enrich our lives immeasurably. But even how powerful the
eye is, it has still its own imperfections. It cannot see things, watch the objects behind
you, or the planets and stars. We need optical instruments to be able to see these
things. Lenses and mirrors are used to form images of objects that cannot be seen
with the human eye. In this lesson, we are going to identify ways in which the
properties of mirrors and lenses determine their use in optical instruments such as
the cameras and binoculars.

What’s In

Before we process further, let us do a simple activity.

Activity 1: Let’s Plan!

Situation I.

Look at the view outside the window. Gaze your eyes over the grass field or
across the sea. If your house is in the middle of tall structures, you may opt to look
at night sky. Draw your observation inside the box below.
Questions to Ponder
1. What objects are found at a distance?

2. Is it hard for you to look at these objects? Why?

This time choose an object from a distant. This could be a tree, a house, or a star
or moon.

3. What instrument can you use to see these objects better?

4. What type of lens is used for this instrument? Why?

 What’s New

The world of viruses and

bacteria are so small that it cannot be
seen by the naked human eye. Viruses
are very small particles that have the
ability to infect plants and animals
and make them sick. They are very
small and lightweight. They also have
the ability to survive in air, water, or
even at the surface of your skin. They
are transmitted through food or water,
shaking of hands, or coughing or
sneezing. Because of their size,
humans need instruments to help https://www.vecteezy.com/vector-art/299037-children-looking-at-
them see these. bacteria-from-microscope

Optical instruments help people see objects that are too small or too far. It
can even produce magnified or reduced images of objects. Optical instruments use
two or more lenses, mirrors or combination of both to meet the needs of the observer.
The right combination of lenses will be able to help you see viruses, bacteria or other
organisms that are too small to be seen by the naked human eye.

What is It

Optical Instruments and their Functions

The following are some optical instruments, their uses and functions.

Magnifying glass - a single lens that refracts light.

It is referred to as a positive lens.

It has a convex shape which means that the central

part of a magnifying lens is thicker than its edges.
When distant parallel light rays hit the surface of the
lens, the rays bend and converge to a point known
as the focus (or focal point). Because a magnifying
lens bend parallel incident light rays to a focus, it can
be used to start a fire!

Vecteezy</a>

A magnifying glass also produces an image of an object that is bigger than

that seen by the naked eye. Imagine that you are looking at a red beetle through a
magnifying glass. The beetle looks bigger than what it actually is! When the object
you are viewing is closer to the lens than the focus, you see a virtual image
that is bigger than the object.

In Figure 1a, the red beetle is between the focus and the lens. The rays
reflected from the beetle are refracted by the magnifying glass and enter the person’s
eye. In Figure 1b, you see how the eye sees a virtual image of the beetle which is
bigger than its actual size. The more curved the convex lens is in a magnifying
glass, the greater its magnifying power.

What do you think happens when you

hold a magnifying glass up and view a distant
object? When you hold a magnifying glass up
and view a distant object, the object appears
smaller and upside down. Unlike when
viewing the ladybird close up, the distant
object is beyond the focal point of the lens,
which results in this effect.

Also, when parallel light rays hit a
magnifying glass, the magnifying glass
bends the light rays and concentrates it into
one focal point. This is what the scouts do
when they starting a fire, remember?

distant scene upside-down and smaller

 A compound microscope consists of a combination of lenses for
magnifying an object several hundred times. It uses two
converging lenses with short focal lengths. The lens near the object
is the objective lens, while the one nearer the eye is the eyepiece.
The objective lens forms a real and enlarged inverted image. The
eyepiece, on the other hand, forms a further enlarged, erect, but
virtual final image.

A telescope allows us to see distant objects. It contains two

converging lenses, namely, the objective and the eyepiece. The
objective lens forms a real image of a very distant object within the
focus of the eyepiece lens. Meanwhile, the focal length of the
objective lens must be relatively longer than the eyepiece lens for
bigger magnification.

Digital cameras make use of a compound of lens which means

that the lens unit contains a series of convex and concave lenses
of various densities that work together to direct the light through
to the sensor to create an image.

When you press the button to take a photograph with a digital camera, an
aperture opens at the front of the camera and light streams in through the lens.
However, there is no film in a digital camera. Instead, there is a piece of electronic
equipment that captures the incoming light rays and turns them into electrical
signals. This light detector is one of two types, either a charge-coupled device (CCD)
or a CMOS image sensor. Light from the object you are capturing gets reflected into
the camera lens. This incoming "picture" hits the image sensor chip, which breaks it
up into millions of pixels. The sensor measures the color and brightness of each pixel
and stores it as a number. Your digital photograph is effectively an enormously long
string of numbers describing the exact details of each pixel it contains.

Binoculars consist of a pair of telescopes mounted together, each

having an objective lens and an eyepiece. The image formed by the
objective lens of binoculars is upside-down, and the left and right
sides are reversed. Binoculars use a system of prisms to switch
the image left to right and right to left. Then the eyepieces create
enlarged, virtual, upright images.

An endoscope is a long flexible tube that is inserted in the body

so that a doctor can observe internal passages such as a person’s
esophagus or intestine. It has a converging lens and bunches of
optical fibers that convey the image to the end of the tube, where
the image can be observed through a computer monitor or screen.
An endoscope uses the concept of total internal reflection.

LCD projectors work by using three liquid crystal panels, a lamp,

a prism, and filters to create the image on the screen. From there
the LCD panels send the light through the dichroic prism which
recombines the light and sends it out the main lens in the LCD
projector to the surface against which it is projected.

The spectrometer uses the principle of diffraction to create a

spectrum of colors emitted by a light source. This aids scientists
and engineers in identifying different substances.

Comparing the Human Eye and the Film Camera

The human eye and a camera are similar in the way they operate. Both capture
the image using the same principles. Both possess components to regulate the
amount of light incident to it. Both can focus the light and capture the image.
However, the two are different in a number of ways. Refer to Figure 4 and the
succeeding table to learn about how the human eye can be compared to a film
camera.
 Camera Part Eye Part Description/ Function
Film Retina Light sensitive screen that retains the
image
Diaphragm Iris Controls the amount of light entering
by reducing the opening
Aperture Pupil Merely an opening; a portion in the
middle of the instrument that
appears black since no light is exiting
from it
Lens Cornea & Lens Focuses the image
Black Paint Choroid Reduces internal reflection

What’s More

Direction: In this section, you will be tasked to construct an improvised optical

instrument. You will either create a Pinhole Camera or a Periscope. Read the
instructions in this activity and decide which improvised instrument will you work
on.

Activity 2-A: Let’s Use!

Option 1: A Pinhole Camera

Pinhole camera is the earliest form of cameras. It works by letting the light
travel through a small hole in a dark box to form a picture on the other side of the
camera. This is the foundation of the cameras we have today.

Task: Construct a pinhole camera and explain the factors that affect image formed

Materials:
empty milk can (370 mL) black construction paper nail
glue hammer wax paper

Procedure:
1. Get a milk can and clean it. Make a tiny hole in the center of its bottom with
a nail and hammer.
2. Make a tube out of the black construction paper. The tube must fit into the
can. Cover the other end of the tube with a wax paper.
3. Point the pinhole to a distant object such as a tree or an electrical post.
Observe the image formed on the wax paper. You can move the tube back and
forth to get a clearer image.

Option 2: Periscope

Periscope is a device used for observation that prevents direct line-of-sight

observation from observer’s position. It works by reflecting the light from an object
from the top of the device. The mirrors are position at a 45 degree angle. The light
that enters through the device is reflected to the identically angled mirror until it
reaches the bottom. This provides the image we see.

Task: Construct a periscope and explain the factors that affect image formed

Materials:
Empty cereal box (or any box available) 2 plane mirrors about 2”x2”
Glue Masking tape
Scissors Ruler
Cutter

Procedure:
1. Download a copy of periscope template at
http://www.webinnate.co.uk/science/docs/periscope_pattern.pdf and print
it. Glue it on the cardboard.
2. Cut out the template along the solid lines. Careful not to cut out the end flaps.
3. Score down the dotted lines using a ruler and a cutter. Fold it inwards.
4. Fold the periscope over to make a tube. Secure with glue and masking tape.
5. Insert the mirror into each opening of the periscope. Glue it.
6. Tape the edges of the periscope. Test your periscope.

This time, my dear learner, let us apply what you have learned into real life
situations. This will be done for you to appreciate the lesson as it finds relevance in
our existence here on earth.

Let’s Go!
Optical devices holds a promising future in the era of digital technology. One
of this is the use of optical fiber. The following is an excerpt from an article entitled
Optical Fiber Communication: telecommunications from https://www.electronics-
notes.com/articles/connectivity/fibre-optics/optical-fibre-telecommunications-
basics.php.
Since the earliest days of telecommunications there has been an ever
increasing need to transmit more data even faster. Initially single line wires
were used. These gave way to coaxial cables that enabled several channels to
transmit over the same cable. However, these systems were limited in
bandwidth and optical systems were investigated.
Optical communications became a possibility after the first lasers were
developed in the 1960s. The next piece of the jigsaw fell into place when the
first optical fibers with a sufficiently low loss for communications purposes
were developed in the 1970s. Then, during the late 1970s a considerable
amount of research was undertaken. This resulted in the installation of the
first optical fiber telecommunications system. It ran over a distance of 45 km
and used a wavelength of 0.5 mm and had a data rate of just 45 Mbps - a
fraction of what is possible today.
Since then, considerable improvements have been made in the
technology. Data rates have improved and in addition to this the performance
of the optical fiber has been improved to enable much greater distances to be
achieved between repeaters. As an indication of this the speeds that can now
be achieved along through a fiber optic system exceed 10 Tbps (Terabyte per
second).
When the first fiber optic transmission systems were being developed,
it was thought that the fiber optic cabling and technology would be
prohibitively expensive. However, this has not been the case and costs have
fallen to the extent that fiber optics now provides the only viable option for
many telecommunications applications. In addition to this it is also used in
many local area networks where speed is a major requirement.

What is the future of telecommunications in the advancements of optical fibers?
