Photometry and Geometrical Optics

Problem 5.52

An optical system is located in air. Let OOO O^{\prime} be its optical axis, FF and F^\hat{F}^{\prime} are the front and rear focal points, HH and HH^{\prime} are the front and rear principal planes, PP and PP^{\prime} are the conjugate points. By means of plotting find: (a) the positions FF^{\prime} and HH^{\prime} (Fig. 5.11a5.11 a ); (b) the position of the point SS^{\prime} conjugate to the point S (Fig. 5.11b)5.11 b) (c) the positions F,FF, F^{\prime}, and HH^{\prime} (Fig. 5.11c5.11 c, where the path of the ray of light is shown before and after passing through the system).
