MCQ
A thin lens is made with a material having refractive index $\mu=1.5.$ Both the sides are convex. It is dipped in water $(\mu=1.33).$ It will behave like:
- ✓A convergent lens.
- BA divergent lens.
- CA rectangular slab.
- DA prism.
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
A convergent lens.
Here $P, P_1\ \&\ P_2$ are the power of Lenses.
$P = P_1 + P_2$
$\frac{1}{\text{f}}=\frac{1}{\text{f}_1}+\frac{1}{\text{f}_2}$
$=(\mu-1)\Big(\frac{2}{\text{R}}\Big)+(\mu'-1)\Big(\frac{-1}{\text{R}}\Big)$
$=\Big(\frac{3}{2}-1\Big)\Big(\frac{2}{\text{R}}\Big)-\Big(\frac{4}{3}-1\Big)\Big(\frac{1}{\text{R}}\Big)$
$\frac{1}{\text{f}}=\frac{1}{\text{R}}-\frac{1}{3\text{R}}$
$\frac{1}{\text{f}}=\frac{3-1}{3\text{R}}$
$\text{f}=\frac{3\text{R}}{2}$
focal length of combined is positive means it will behave like a canvergent lens.
