प्रश्न
What do you understand by the power of a lens? Name one factor on which the power of a lens depends.
उत्तर
The power of a lens is a measure of the degree of convergence or divergence of light rays falling on it. It is defined as the reciprocal of the focal length of a lens in metres.
i.e., Power = `1/"focal length of lens (in metre)"`
Therefore, the power of a lens depends on the focal length.
