The refractive index of the material of a double convex lens is 1.5 and its focal length is 5 ~cm . If the radii of curvature are equal, the value of the radius of curvature (in cm ) is
Options
- A5.0
- B6.5
- C8.0
- D9.5
Correct answer
A. 5.0
Step-by-step solution
1 f =( -1) ( 1 R₁ - 1 R₂ ) For double convex lens, R₁=R, R₂=-R aligned & 1 5 =(1.5-1) ( 1 R + 1 R ) & or 1 5 =0.5 2 R & or R=5 ~cm & aligned
