प्रश्न
A nearsighted person cannot clearly see beyond 200 cm. Find the power of the lens needed to see objects at large distances.
संक्षेप में उत्तर
उत्तर
For a near-sighted person, u = ∞.
Now, we have:
v = – 200 cm = – 2 m
The lens formula is given by
`1/v -1/u =1/f`
On putting the respective values, we get:
`1/f = 1/((-2)) -1/∞ =-1/2`
∴ The power of the lens = `1/f`= -0.5 D
