QUESTION

The cornea of the eye has a radius of curvature of approximately 0.500cm , and the aqueous humor behind it has an index of refraction of 1.

The cornea of the eye has a radius of curvature of approximately 0.500cm , and the aqueous humor behind it has an index of refraction of 1.35. The thickness of the cornea itself is small enough that we shall neglect it. The depth of a typical human eye is around 2.32cm . 1) What would have to be the radius of curvature of the cornea so that it alone would focus the image of a distant mountain on the retina, which is at the back of the eye opposite the cornea?2)If the cornea focused the mountain correctly on the retina as described in part A, where would it focus the text from a computer screen if that screen were 28.9cm in front of the eye?3) Given that the cornea has a radius of curvature of about 0.550cm , where does it actually focus the mountain?For part 1 it hints that this is not as a lens but a spherical object...
