A double convex lens, made of a material of refractive index μ1, is placed inside two liquids of refractive indices μ2 and μ3, as shown. μ2 > μ1 > μ3. A wide, parallel beam of light is incident on the lens from the left. The lens will give rise to(a) a single convergent beam (b) two different convergent beams (c) two different divergent beams (d) a convergent and a divergent beam

Answer»

Correct Answer is: (d) a convergent and a divergent beam

As μ2 > μ1, the upper half of the lens will become diverging. 

As μ1 > μ3, the lower half of the lens will become converging.
