Two coherent point sources S₁ and S_2, vibrating in phase, emit light of wavelength \[\lambda.\] The separation between the sources is \[2\lambda.\] Consider a line passing through S₂ and perpendicular to the line S₁ S₂. What is the smallest distance from S₂ where a minimum intensity occurs?

The equation of refraction at a spherical surface is \[\frac{\mu_2}{\nu} - \frac{\mu_1}{\mu} = \frac{\mu_2 - \mu_1}{R}\]

A converging lens of focal length 15 cm and a converging mirror of focal length 10 cm are placed 50 cm apart. If a pin of length 2.0 cm is placed 30 cm from the lens farther away from the mirror, where will the final image form and what will be the size of the final image?

A 5 mm high pin is placed at a distance of 15 cm from a convex lens of focal length 10 cm. A second lens of focal length 5 cm is placed 40 cm from the first lens and 55 cm from the pin. Find (a) the position of the final image, (b) its nature and (c) its size.

A point object is placed at a distance of 15 cm from a convex lens. The image is formed on the other side at a distance of 30 cm from the lens. When a concave lens is placed in contact with the convex lens, the image shifts away further by 30 cm. Calculate the focal lengths of the two lenses.

Two convex lenses, each of focal length 10 cm, are placed at a separation of 15 cm with their principal axes coinciding.
