$A$ thin equiconvex glass lens of refractive index $1.5$ has a power of $5 \,D$. When the lens is immersed in a liquid of refractive index $\mu$, it acts as a divergent lens of focal length $100 \,cm$. The value of $\mu$ of the liquid is:

  • A
    $4/3$
  • B
    $3/4$
  • C
    $5/3$
  • D
    $8/3$

Letters $A, B, C$ and $D$ are written on a cardboard as shown in the figure. The cardboard is kept at a suitable distance behind a transparent empty glass of cylindrical shape. If the glass is now filled with water,one sees an inverted image of the pattern on the cardboard when looking through the glass. Ignoring magnification effects,the image would appear as:

$A$ 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 $100 \, cm$?
