Part a of the figure shows two small objects arranged vertically a distance x one above the other on the left side of the schematic. On the right side, at a distance lowercase d from the two objects, is a vertical oval shape that represents a convex lens. The middle of the lens is on the horizontal bisector between the two points on the left. Two rays, one from each object on the left, leave the objects and pass through the center of the lens. The distance d is significantly longer than the distance x. Part b of the figure shows a horizontal oval representing a convex lens labeled microscope objective that is a distance lowercase d above a flat surface. The oval's long axis is of length capital D. A point P is labeled on the plane directly below the center of the lens, and two rays leave this point. One ray extends to the left edge of the lens and the other ray extends to the right edge of the lens. The angle between these rays is labeled acceptance angle theta, and the half angle is labeled alpha. The distance lowercase d is longer than the distance capital D.
