Here's the question you clicked on:
whats the difference among convex lens, telescope, and optical microscope working principle wise
This is my unprofessional analysis. A convex lens is one piece that is shaped like a center piece of a bulging disk - like flying saucer shape - that will allow some light to pass through it while changing it's direction (of propagation). |dw:1349901617220:dw|
Actually, I worded that really badly. It changes the direction of light as it passes from one substance to another.
Optic microscopes and telescopes can use different lenses to bend light to recreate an image to a different scale. Both devices are made for the purpose of ceating an image in a greater scale, but sometimes I turn telescopes around because it's funny to see everything tiny!
I'm not completely sure if what I said about optic microscopes and telescopes is correct.
ah it makes sense :) so basically all these use lenses to magnify ? basic concept is same in all these.. ? could u plz tell hw bending light scales the image..
http://static.ddmcdn.com/gif/telescope-basic.jpg that's a good picture of a telescope http://images.tutorvista.com/content/optical-instruments/compound-microscope.jpeg - that's a confusing picture of a microscope!
And telescopes generally don't make the image bigger than the real thing, but they do make it bigger tha you see otherwise.
convex lens focuses the light into one spot
but it wont disturb the object is it
i mean the bending of light
And light bends when it changes mediums. It's subtle, like reflection. However, the extend to which it bends depends on the material it's coming from compared to the material it's going into.
http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/primer/java/scienceopticsu/refraction/index.html - is an application that shows light bending. You can use this if you want.
wil the resolution of object change, as the eyepiece collects it ?
in computer if we zoom in the resolution decreases
Define resolution, please.
its downloading java
The new image will not necessarily be sharp.
if i take a pic with 5 MP camera, and keep zooming in the picture would get blurred
eventhough it becomes big
Sorry I'm not being too helpful! I'm having trouble remembering back to when I studied this!
yes would that happen wid lens also
Ah, I see! I like Java... Anyway, that bending of light depends on the angle that it hits the lens! (Angle between lens and propagation of light). That's why the lens's curve is important. Let's draw.
I'm sorry, there seems to be a lag. I hope my response comes in soon.
I'll try to paraphrase. Maybe I type too much.
The magnitude of the light bend depends on the medium it comes from and the medium it goes into.
It also depends on what angle it hits the surface of what it goes into.
That is, the angle between the light's direction of propagation and the surface of the medium.
This angle issue is actually why the curve of the lens is so important!
The way a convex lens is angled, light rays tend to condense on the other side. This is opposite from concave.|dw:1349932610900:dw|
The rays there are parallel with each other and perpendicular to... Well, I'm sure you see it - how it is with the lens. I can say perpendicular to the circular cross-section of the lens as I picture it.
Now you mentioned disturbing the light of the object. Well each point of an actual object, like a teddy bear, will scatter light in many directions and then hit your convex lens. On the other side, that point looks like it's in many places. Other points on the object will do the same thing where each one will look like it's in many places. This is the blurring. You look at some point on your image, and it is a culmination of different points on the object. They all mix. But if all the scattered rays of a point on an object meet (at what's called a "focal point") at the image, then it doesn't cause the blurring. To get a great picture, you'd want every point on that object to have exactly one point on the image. Unfortunately, the focal points of different parts of your real object might have different focal points in the setup. You'll get a sharp image when you have the image be where many focal points are. In physics classes, you're often asked to find the focal point of an "object". This object is really just considered to be a point. This scenario demonstrates the actually physics of the light from that point. You can also estimate the focal point of an actual object, but estimations will be closer with smaller objects, greater distances, and other things I think.
oh if the object is not a single point, then it wont have one focal point, it wil have so many focal points, each for each point on the object is it ! wow
but hw can light reflected from the object hit the lens only parallely ? it looks the object reflects light in all directions rigth
@theEric im really understanding these things, u explained ver well, really appreciate ur time :)
I'm glad you're learning! I'm doing my best! :P Really, you're absolutely right; light is scattered in all directions! So the rays won't be parallel with each other. The closest thing to rays from one point actually being parallel, is when rays from one point are pretty close to bing parallel. |dw:1349990309151:dw| A good comparison is light coming from the sun. |dw:1349991283091:dw|Now look at the next picture. The point will be a spot on the earth, which is much smaller that the Sun. The sun's so far away, I can fit Sun and Earth in one picture. If I did fit them (in a bigger picture), the Earth would be smaller than a pixel anyway. |dw:1349990936475:dw| See how parallel all rays are? This happens to a lesser extent with all far away object that create or reflect light. So telescopes are simpler to understand when you simplify reality. But microscopes take in light of all directions, and your issue comes up there! The trick, then, is to "focus the microscope" by adjusting the light so that you can get as many points on your object focused to just one point. Thus, no blurring! Later, if I'm free, I'll draw a picture of an object and light rays reflected in different directions from each. Each point's rays will have their own focal point. Thus the image will have just one point shown for that actual point. All points on the object will have a focal point, but those focal points of all the objects points might be hard to catch on a single sheet of paper, or whatever device you use to "catch" the image. If a point from the object isn't focused, then it's spread upon the image and causes blurring. By point, here, I'm actually reffering to a collection of incredibly tiny, subatomic areas that light comes from. But "point" is easier to imagine. Sorry if I've caused any confusion!
red lines are from one point and black lines are from the other. See how each point has it's corresponding point? In reality, that doesn't even always happen because of the lens shape. And different wavelengths, or types of light, don't all bend at the same angle - even when they hit at the same point and angle as other types. But when you get close to the point where rays meet (or get close to one another) then your image will be more in focus.

I'm so excited about this! It's also coming to Cinemark Classics in June, which I may be wrong but I think that's separate from the 40th anniversary at select theaters.
That's so funny when you watched it the first time. Good ole Dads!!
This movie scared the bejeezus out of me when I was 11 in the theaters.
I could only imagine how good it is in the theater now! Enjoy!

For example, birth and marriage records include names of parents and divorce records list the names of children.
See all vital records for John Walker, IV
John Walker IV, of the Wigton Walker line was probably born on the Nottingham Lots in Cecil County Maryland, where his parents (John Walker III and Ann Houston) married c1734.[2]
About 1738 John's parents relocated to the Valley of Virginia, along with other family members. There is some evidence that they may have initially settled on Beverly's Manor, but by 1753 we find his parents owning property on Walker's Creek on Borden's Grant, a few miles to the south, where other members of the family (per White 1902) had settled. Sometime around 1756, during the French and Indian War John's parents fled the Valley of Virginia, settling in what is now Caswell County NC. John IV would probably have been an adult by this time, but there is little evidence of his presence in NC. About 1770 the family relocated once again, this time to Southwest Virginia. John's father settled in an area known as "The Sinks" (1) between the community of Place:Castles Woods and Hunter's Ford of the Clinch River, at Dungannon. Other family members settled nearby. John IV settled some distance away, choosing a site for his home at Houston's Fort on the Big Moccassin Creek (2) watershed.
John lived in this area for the next 16 years. At the end of the Revolution he sold his property (including his fathers lands on "The Sinks", and left the area. Some identify him as John Walker (aka "Meadow Creek" John Walker), who settled on Meadow Creek in Green County TN about 1786. This identification is based on the fact that a Charles Kilgore settled near by; Charles is well known, and came to the area from Southwest Virginia where he lived adjacent to Person:Patrick Porter (1), and John Walker IV's father, John III. It was once presumed by some that Charles and John IV moved together to Greene County. However, YDNA results from the line of Meadow Creek John Walker and that of John Walker III indicate that they are unrelated to each other. It now seems likely that after he left Southwest Virginia John IV settled in Blount County where he is the person known as "Indian Killer". Confirming YDNA evidence for this interpretation has not been obtained. For the moment this article assumes that John IV is in fact "Indian Killer".
TBD LIttle River history of John IV....
The following mapping identifies land owned by "John Walker Jr.". It is not clear which of several John Walkers in the area is involved in this. John Walker IV has in the past been considered a possible candidate. Phil Rhoton argues convincingly that the John Walker involved can not be John IV.

School Surveillance
An IP video surveillance application has been updated to work with new hardware and to provide error reporting. Genetec's new release, Omnicast 4.6, focuses on support for H.264 surveillance cameras, including hardware from Bosch, Panasonic, and Sanyo. H.264 is a set of standards defining video compression.
The new release of Omnicast also includes synchronous playback of exported video, which allows multiple tiles of archived video to play recordings captured at the same point in time.
Also, in order to continue video recording, a new "Failover Archiver" feature kicks into action when a disk is full or has failed.

Gift Idea
George Harrison was a huge advocate for the ukulele. He loved playing them, and even giving them away. On one trip to Hawaii I was told a story that George would go around the island and buy all the Kamaka's he could find (now I don't know if it was a certain size he was after, or if he just bought any and all), and he would then give them away.

Without even making a single toss yet this season, Scott Linebrink will likely be making a trip to the DL according to the Post-Dispatch's Derrick Goold. Goold tweeted this afternoon that Linebrink has been sent back to St. Louis to have an MRI on a sore lat.

Featherbedding describes the practice where businesses hire more workers than are necessary to carry out particular tasks. Unions insist on rules against featherbedding to ensure that employees remain employed when a decrease in work or wages is imminent due to external factors, like technological changes and reduced demand. Often, these changes in technology or demand for a company's products or services will cause the company to lay off the extra, or "fluff", employees.
Unions sometimes request that featherbedding rules be added to labor contracts to protect workers from future unemployment. Featherbedding causes tensions between the management body of a company and the union because companies, eager to reduce costs, do not want to pay more than they have to, while unions seek to secure the employment of its members at all costs.

Bamboo is right about the JTB locations at Mitsuwa. In recent years, a lot of other travel agencies have appeared that offer cheap flights to Japan as well. These tend to vary depending on where you live. A quick way to find out where to get the best prices is to check with your local Japan-America Society or Japan-Canada Society. If you're a student, it often helps to check with the Japanese language department/modern language department on your campus because 1) the travel agencies usually send promotional materials to schools and 2) some agencies offer big discounts to students.
Side note: Every once in a while, Korean Air offers big discounts on their flights to Tokyo. I was able to snag a round trip from Tokyo to LA with them once for $360 round trip^-^. There are lots of cheap options out there, so look everywhere - you'll be shocked how cheap flights can become.

Well if anyone is looking for a place to stay in Tokyo I highly recommend the hostel K's House.
It's in the Asakusa area so it is not necessarily the most central location but Japan's transportation system is very easy to navigate so this wasn't an issue for me at all.
Also the place is clean and cheap and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I guess the only other issue is the showers are communal. Although anyone who lived in a dorm is probably used to this.

I used hostelworld.com to keep my nightly bill at right around $20.
I also booked my one night in a ryokan through japanhotel.net. I had several specific questions for them once I had confirmed the room (such as location and non-smoking requests) and they were quick and very clear with their responses. The best part about japanhotel.net is that you don't have to write in and hope that they actually have a room available at the prices they quote... you pay what is listed there.
Bamboo, hopefully I'll see you at the Game Show!

|I found http://www.asiarooms.com to be very good for finding rooms in Japan. Looking at posted prices on Japanhotels I think AsiaRooms has better prices. I THINK it also has more options, but I could be wrong. One other thing to note to anyone looking at hotel room pictures on these sites. Almost ALWAYS when looking at the pictures of rooms note that a room with two beds the beds are SINGLES, they are not "double beds" (or larger) like in America so keep that in mind when looking at the beds and scale the room accordingly. Japanese hotel rooms are "cozy" and I enjoyed my stays at the hotels but the first time I stepped into a Japanese hotel room I was surprised by the size because of mistaking the scale in online pictures.

Just FYI, if you want to save even more money, you can take a JR line from Narita Airport to your hotel for about 1/3 the price of the Limobus. In fact, I'm pretty sure we spent less than 1000 yen to get to the Crowne Plaza Tokyo Metopolitan Hotel in Ikebukuro when my friend and I went in May, but it definitely wasn't more than 1200. It took roughly the same amount of time as the limobus, give or take about 10 minutes. Plus, it was a freaking awesome experience for someone who had never been out of the US before.
You'll likely have to switch lines once or twice to reach your destination, but you'll be doing that anyways once you start to move around from place to place (unless of course you're loaded and plan on taking taxis everywhere). There is a desk at the airport where you can buy your train ticket and they will help you figure out the fare schedule and what lines to switch on. Once you get on the trains, they are either equipped with television screens that announce the upcoming stops and illustrate the lines, or have a map with a light indicating the current stop and showing the upcoming ones beside it. Oh man... talking about it makes me want to go back so badly... hahaha.

Woo the JRLine to and from Narita to Asakusa (well JR and another stop or two) was killer for our group... especially when we lugged our much-heavier luggage up and down the stairs to get to the terminal. But yes, way cheaper. Think it was $10 or so for us to make that 40+ minute journey.
I suggest for groups making a journey to stay at the Sakura House in Asakusa. We were very happy there. It's clean and quite affordable. Asakusa may seem like where all the old people live in Tokyo (and also where you can find a few HUGE Love Hotels... ^^; ) it's an AMAZING place to stay while in Tokyo. You're next to a huge Buddhist shrine, a far smaller Shinto shrine, and the hugest shopping bazaar ever. Hell, there's an amusement park just a couple of blocks from the hostel. Looooved our week there.
But man... the jetlag. So horrible when I got home. Couldn't fall asleep before 4AM for at least a week..

Posts: 14
Really? That is funny. I was falling asleep uncharacteristically early (like 9-10pm or earlier) and waking up at like 5am everyday for the next week after returning home. But then again, I didn't sleep for more than a few hours the last night in Tokyo and maybe all of 15 mins. on the 14 hour plane ride home. ()
I really miss it though. Two weeks seemed like an eternity there compared to two weeks here. I am definitely going back sometime. I am thinking about looking into working for an ESL program for a year before starting law/grad school, but I might wait until I'm finished. I'm not totally sure yet.
I am pretty sure we saw that shrine you are talking about in Asakusa. I know we at least went to that district at some point, and I'm pretty sure that's what it was for. Man, just walking around and exploring everything there was so much fun! ESPECIALLY the food, hehe. I hope to travel abroad to more places once I have the money.

In my opinion if you have never been to Japan and you're staying at a hotel ON the bus route (like the Sunshine Prince or the Crowne Met. in Ikebukuro) take the bus for the inbound. The train may be cheaper and with traffic it might even be faster, but I cannot say enough how convenient it is to be dropped of RIGHT at your hotel. If you've never been to Japan navigating the train stations CAN be intimidating and for certain hotels I wouldn't want to try to find them while hauling luggage. (altho the Metropolitan is ridiculously convenient to the station)
If you're staying at a hotel that is not serviced directly by a limobus, then I agree on the train, altho my own preference is for the NEX (Narita Express) train. It's more expensive, but it goes straight to certain locations (so it's faster) and you don't need to figured out train swaps. It's still approx. the same cost as the bus though, so not much more pricey. But again, IMO if you're talking the difference between $10 and $35 it's worth the extra $25 for the piece of mind of not getting lost looking for the hotel if the bus goes there directly. (especially since some of our group was half asleep by the time we got to the hotel)

They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.
What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.
Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" tagline has finally been run into the ground, replaced with the Bowtie brand's "Find New Roads" slogan that's part of parent General Motors' plan to unify its everyday brand's marketing efforts worldwide. The new Chevrolet campaign was ushered in on prime time last night during the Grammy Awards on CBS, and the first spot, a 90-second full-line ad, also marks the first appearance of the 2014 Corvette Stingray in a commercial.
Being a full-line ad, the commercial is composed of vignettes centered on different vehicles in the brand's lineup. The all-new 2014 Impala also makes its first commercial appearance in dapper fashion, and time is spent on a skateboarding Sonic and a bouquet of brightly colored Spark hatchbacks driven by fashionable women. The ad starts and ends with Chevy's green halo car, the Volt, along with a young girl with her robotic dog (yes, really).
Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" campaign got off to a rocky start in the fall of 2010, but it did last for a couple of years with some tweaks. This new one, "Find New Roads" seems more intent on drawing new customers into the fold than the outgoing tagline, which seemed to play more toward the brand faithful. It admittedly reminds us more than a little the short-lived "Find Your Own Road" Saab motto (which, we note, was conceived while the Swedish brand was under GM's control), but no matter, we still think it's got more long-term potential than "Runs Deep."

An Intelligent Regenerative Braking Strategy for Electric Vehicles
AbstractRegenerative braking is an effective approach for electric vehicles (EVs) to extend their driving range. A fuzzy-logic-based regenerative braking strategy (RBS) integrated with series regenerative braking is developed in this paper to advance the level of energy-savings. From the viewpoint of securing car stability in braking operations, the braking force distribution between the front and rear wheels so as to accord with the ideal distribution curve are considered to prevent vehicles from experiencing wheel lock and slip phenomena during braking. Then, a fuzzy RBS using the driver's braking force command, vehicle speed, battery SOC, battery temperature are designed to determine the distribution between friction braking force and regenerative braking force to improve the energy recuperation efficiency. The experimental results on an "LF620" prototype EV validated the feasibility and effectiveness of regenerative braking and showed that the proposed fuzzy RBS was endowed with good control performance. The maximum driving range of LF620 EV was improved by 25.7% compared with non-RBS conditions.

Rural house consumed by flames
DELTA, Mo. -- A rural Cape Girardeau County home was fully engulfed in flames when firefighters responded to the scene early Wednesday morning at 14664 Highway 25.
The call for service was dispatched at 2:57 a.m. The house was unoccupied and sits about midway between Delta and Blowmeyer. Highway 25 was shut down temporarily as smoke crossed the lanes of traffic.
"There were flames coming out of all the windows when we arrived," said John Sachen of the Delta Fire Protection District. "But 85 to 90 percent of what was there when we arrived is still standing."
Delta fire chief Alvin Frank was the first on the scene. Extra tankers were called in from fire departments in Gordonville and Advance and extra personnel were requested from the Whitewater department, Sachen said.
More than 25 firefighters were on the scene and extinguished the blaze and saturated the smoldering debris with foam.
The state fire marshal's office and staff investigators from the Delta district are continuing an investigation into the cause of the fire, Sachen said. The homeowners were in the process of refurbishing the home, he said.

Syria has started moving chemical weapons materials out of the country in the most crucial phase of an internationally backed disarmament program that has been delayed by war and technical problems.
The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons said that "priority chemical materials" were transported to the port of Latakia and onto a Danish vessel which was now sailing towards international waters.
Syria agreed to abandon its chemical weapons by June under a deal proposed by Russia and agreed with the United States after an August 21 sarin gas attack that Western nations blamed on President Bashar al-Assad's forces. Damascus blames rebels for the attack.
War, bad weather, bureaucracy and technical issues meant a December 31 deadline for the removal of the most deadly toxins from Syria was missed.
The OPCW did not disclose what percentage of Syria's toxic arsenal - which totals 1,300 tonnes in all - had been removed but said nine containers of the most dangerous chemical materials were on the Danish cargo vessel.
"The vessel has been accompanied by naval escorts provided by Denmark and Norway, as well as the Syrian Arab Republic," a statement said. "It will remain at sea awaiting the arrival of additional priority chemical materials at the port."
Maritime security was being provided by Chinese, Danish, Norwegian and Russian ships.
Government forces have taken back control of the highway linking Damascus to the coast which is needed to transport the toxins. Rebel were ousted from three towns along the road but activists say convoys moving along it will remain vulnerable to rebel ambushes.
In Syria, the bloodiest bout of rebel infighting since the war started nearly three years ago prompted the head of an al Qaeda-linked rebel group to called for a ceasefire between opposition factions.
An audio recording from the leader of the powerful Nusra Front, known as Abu Mohammed al-Golani, laid much of the blame for the fighting on an al Qaeda splinter group known as the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL).
While both groups have roots in the global Islamist network and welcome foreign militants, the Nusra Front has cooperated more with other rebel groups and has largely avoided the power struggles that ISIL has faced since wresting control of many opposition-held areas from other groups.
"Many rebel units have committed transgressions, just as the mistaken policies followed by played a prominent role in fuelling the conflict," Golani said.
ISIL has also been fighting in Iraq, where it faces an onslaught by army tanks and artillery around the city of Falluja, whose local leaders have urged the Qaeda-linked militants to leave before being attacked.
ISIL gunmen want to reconquer Iraq's Anbar province in pursuit of their goal of creating a radical Islamic state out of the chaos of neighbouring Syria's civil war.
More than 274 people have been killed in the rebel-on-rebel clashes in Syria since they began Friday, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition monitoring group.
Golani proposed forming an Islamic legal council to resolve feuds among the rebels and called for the militants to return to their shared goal of fighting Assad's forces, as the campaign to oust the Syrian leader nears the end of its third year.
It was not possible to verify the audio statement, but it was posted on a Twitter account used by the Nusra Front.
"This unfortunate situation has pushed us to launch an initiative to save the battlefields from being lost. This will be done by forming an independent legal counsel by all the (rebel) factions in addition to a ceasefire," Golani said.
Rebel groups, many of them also hardline Islamists, last week launched what appeared to be a series of coordinated strikes against ISIL in northern and eastern Syria after months of increasing tensions with the group, which has alienated many Syrians in rebel-held regions.
In one northwestern region of Syria alone, other rebel groups appear to have killed 34 foreign fighters from ISIL, the Observatory said.
Golani urged rebels not to become divided between foreign and local fighters, arguing that all were needed to launch jihad, or holy war, in the country.
The campaign to topple Assad has degenerated into a civil war with several sectarian and ethnic struggles emerging, as well as the internecine fighting now plaguing the rebels.
Golani urged rebels to exchange prisoners and open roads to all opposition units.
