A biconvex lens of focal length f and radii of curvature of both the surfaces R is made of a material of refractive index n₁ . This lens is placed in a liquid of refractive index n₂ . Now this lens will behave like
Options
- Aeither as a convex or as a concave lens depending solely on R
- Ba convex lens depending on n₁ and n₂
- Ca concave lens depending on n₁ and n₂
- Da convex lens of same focal length irrespective of R, n₁ and n₂
Correct answer
C. a concave lens depending on n₁ and n₂
Step-by-step solution
The lens will behave like a convex lens or a concave lens depending upon the value of n₁ and n₂ .
