Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 6 cm; virtual and erect

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \frac{1}{f} = (n - 1) \left( \frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2} \right) \) \( \frac{1}{f} = (1.5 - 1) \left( \frac{1}{+20 \text{ cm}} - \frac{1}{-20 \text{ cm}} \right) = 0.5 \left( \frac{2}{20 \text{ cm}} \right) = \frac{1}{20 \text{ cm}} \) \( f = +20 \text{ cm} \)…
