$A$ convex lens has a power of $+5.0 \, D$ in air,where the refractive index of the lens material is $_a\mu_g = 1.5$. In a liquid of what refractive index should it be immersed so that it acts as a concave lens of focal length $100 \, cm$?

  • A
    $5/3$
  • B
    $4/3$
  • C

$A$ hollow lens is made of thin glass and in the shape of a double concave lens. It can be filled with air,water of refractive index $1.33$,or $CS_2$ of refractive index $1.6$. It will act as a diverging lens,if it is

$A$ glass convex lens has a refractive index of $1.55$ with both faces having the same radius of curvature. What is the radius of curvature required if the focal length is to be $20 \,cm$ (in $\,cm$)?

Assertion: $A$ double convex lens $(\mu = 1.5)$ has a focal length of $10 \, cm$. When the lens is immersed in water $(\mu = 4/3)$,its focal length becomes $40 \, cm$.
Reason: $\frac{1}{f} = \left( \frac{\mu_l - \mu_m}{\mu_m} \right) \left( \frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2} \right)$
