An equiconvex lens has a focal length of 20 cm and its radius of curvature is 30 cm. Its refractive index is :
- A \(\text { 3/2 }\)
- B \(\text { 5/4 }\)
- C \(\text { 7/4 }\)
- D \(\text { 7/3}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\text { 7/4 }\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( \frac{1}{f} = (\mu - 1) \left( \frac{2}{R} \right) \) \( \frac{1}{20} = (\mu - 1) \left( \frac{2}{30} \right) \) \( \frac{1}{20} = (\mu - 1) \left( \frac{1}{15} \right) \) \( \frac{15}{20} = \mu - 1 \) \( \frac{3}{4} = \mu - 1 \) \( \mu = 1 + \frac{3}{4} \)…

- Read the following passage carefully.
Restriction enzyme
Restriction enzymes cut the strand of DNA a little away from the center of the palindrome sites, but between the same two bases on the opposite strands. This leaves single stranded portions at the ends. There are overhanging stretches called sticky ends on each strand. These are named so because they form hydrogen bonds with their complementary cut counterparts. This stickiness of the ends facilitates the action of the enzyme DNA ligase. The word palindromes refer to group of letters that forms the same words when read both forward and backward. Restriction endonucleases are used in genetic engineering as molecular scissors.
Palindromes are:CUET 2025 Hard - Identify the correct statements for pollen grains
