A plano-convex lens of radius of curvature 30 cm and refractive index 1.5 is kept in air. Find its focal length (in cm).

Answer»

30
60
15
120

Solution :From LENS maker.s formula,
In `1/f=(mu-1)[(1)/(R_1)-(1)/(R_2)],R_1=infty,R_2=-30` CM
`therefore 1/f=(1.5-1.0)[(1)/(infty)-(1)/(-30)]`
`therefore 1/f=0.5 XX(1)/(30)=(1)/(60)`
`therefore` f=60 cm
