The refractive index of a converging lens is 1 . 4 . What will be the focal length of this lens if it is placed in a medium of same refractive index ? (Assume the radii of curvature of the faces of lens are R 1 and R 2 respectively)
Options
- A1
- BInfinite
- CR 1 R 2 R 1 - R 2
- DZero
Correct answer
B. Infinite
Step-by-step solution
1   F = μ L μ S - 1 1 R 1 - 1 R 2 If μ L = μ S ⇒ 1   F = 0 ⇒ F = ∞
