The focal length of a convex lens in air and in a liquid medium are 20 cm and 80 cm, respectively. If the absolute refractive index of lens is 1.5, then the refractive index of liquid is :

  1. A 3/2
  2. B 4/3
  3. C 8/9
  4. D 9/8
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 4/3

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \frac{1}{f_a} = (n_l - 1)K \) \( \frac{1}{f_l} = \left(\frac{n_l}{n_m} - 1\right)K \) \( \frac{f_l}{f_a} = \frac{n_l - 1}{\frac{n_l}{n_m} - 1} \) \( \frac{80}{20} = \frac{1.5 - 1}{\frac{1.5}{n_m} - 1} \) \( 4 = \frac{0.5}{\frac{1.5}{n_m} - 1} \)…
