A spherical surface of radius of curvature ' R ' separates air from glass of refractive index 1.5. The centre of curvature is in the glass. A point object P placed in air forms a real image Q in the glass. The line P Q cuts the surface at point ' O ' and PO = OQ = x . Hence the distance ' x ' is equal to
Options
- A1.5 R
- B2 R
- C3 R
- D5 R
Correct answer
D. 5 R
Step-by-step solution
Given: u =- x , v =+ x We know, aligned & n ₂ v - n ₁ u = n ₂- n ₁ R & 1.5 x + 1 x = 0.5 R & 2.5 x = 0.5 R & x =5 R aligned
