The radii of curvature of both the surface of a convex lens of focal length ' f ' and focal power ' P ' are equal. One of the surfaces is made plane by grinding. The new focal length and focal power of the lens is respectively
Options
- A1 2 f , 2 P
- B2 f , P 2
- C2 f , P 2
- D2 f 3 , 2 3 P
Correct answer
B. 2 f , P 2
Step-by-step solution
aligned & P = 1 f =( -1) ( 1 R + 1 R )=( -1) 2 R & P ^ = 1 f ^ =( -1) 1 R & P ^ = P 2 and f ^ =2 f aligned
