The graph between 1u\dfrac{1}{u} and 1v\dfrac{1}{v} for a thin convex lens in order to determine its focal length is plotted as shown in the figure. The refractive index of lens is 1.51 . 5 and its both the surfaces have same radius of curvatures RR. The value of RR will be _____ cmcm.

(Where u=u = object distance, v=v = image distance)

The graph between (1)/(u) and (1)/(v) for a thin convex lens in order to determine its focal length is plotted as shown

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

The graph between (1)/(u) and (1)/(v) for a thin convex lens in order to determine its focal length is plotted as shown

For point B,1u=−0.10cm−1,1v=0B, \dfrac{1}{u} = - 0 . 10{cm}^{- 1}, \dfrac{1}{v} = 0

∴∴ Thus, u=−10cm,v=∞u = - 10cm, v = \infty

Using lens formula,

1f=1v−1u=0−(−10)\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{v} - \dfrac{1}{u} = 0 - \left(- 10\right)

⇒f=10cm⇒ f = 10cm

Now, using Lens maker's formula,

1f=(μ−1)(1R1−1R2)\dfrac{1}{f} = \left(\mu - 1\right)\left(\dfrac{1}{{R}_{1}} - \dfrac{1}{{R}_{2}}\right), where, μ\mu is refractive index of lens.

⇒110cm=(1.5−1)(2R)=1R⇒R=10cm⇒ \dfrac{1}{10cm} = \left(1 . 5 - 1\right)\left(\dfrac{2}{R}\right) = \dfrac{1}{R} ⇒ R = 10cm
