Application +4 | -1

If a biconvex lens of material of refractive index

1.5

has focal length

20 \mathrm{~cm}

in air, then its focal length when it is submerged in a medium of refractive index

1.6

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

-160 \mathrm{~cm}

Option A (

-160 \mathrm{~cm}

) is correct because the focal length changes when the lens is submerged in a different medium, and the new focal length is calculated using the lens maker's formula, considering the refractive indices of the lens and the surrounding medium.

. The size of the image is Red colour is used for danger signals because A ray of light is incident on the hypotenuse of a right-angled prism after travelling parallel to the base inside the prism. If

\mathrm{\mu }

is the refractive index of the material of the prism, the maximum value of the base angle for which light is totally reflected from the hypotenuse is Statement-A: The minimum distance between an object and its real image formed by a convex lens is

2{f}

.

Statement-B: The distance between an object and its real image is minimum when its magnification is -1. Assertion: We cannot produce a real image by plane or convex mirrors under any circumstances.
Reason: The focal length of a convex mirror is always taken negative. If both the object and image are at infinite distance from a refracting telescope its magnifying power will be equal to
