When a convex lens is immersed in two different liquids of refractive indices 1.25 and 1.5. The ratio of the focal lengths of the lens is \(5: 16\). The refractive index of the material of the lens is

  1. A 1.55
  2. B 1.5
  3. C 1.65
  4. D 1.6
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 1.65

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

In first liquid, \(\mu_1=1.25\) \(\therefore \frac{1}{\mathrm{f}_1}=\left(\frac{\mu_2}{1.25}-1\right)\left(\frac{1}{\mathrm{R}_1}-\frac{1}{\mathrm{R}_2}\right)\) In second liquid, \(\mu_1=1.5\)…
