A plano-convex lens is made of refractive index of 1.6. The radius of curvature of the curved surface is 60 ~cm . The focal length of the lens is
Options
- A400 ~cm
- B200 ~cm
- C100 ~cm
- D50 ~cm
Correct answer
C. 100 ~cm
Step-by-step solution
Here, 1 f =( -1) [ 1 R ₁ - 1 R ₂ ] 1 f =(1.6-1) [ 1 60 - 1 ]= 1 100 f =100 ~cm
