प्रश्न
A biconvex lens made of a transparent material of refractive index 1.25 is immersed in water of refractive index 1.33. Will the lens behave as a converging or a diverging lens? Give reason.
योग
उत्तर
`1/f = (μ - 1) (1/R_1 - 1/R_2)`
`1/f = (μ_m/μ_w - 1) (1/R_1 - 1/R_2)`
`μ_m/μ_w = 1.25/1.33`
`μ_m/μ_w` = 0.98
The value of (µ – 1) is negative and ‘f’ will be negative. So it will behave like diverging lens.
