The radii of curvature of a double convex lens are 15 cm and 10 cm and its refractive index is 1.3. Its focal length will be:

  1. A -10 cm
  2. B +10 cm
  3. C +20 cm
  4. D +12.5 cm
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) +20 cm

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \frac{1}{f} = (n-1) \left( \frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2} \right) \) \( \frac{1}{f} = (1.3-1) \left( \frac{1}{15} - \frac{1}{-10} \right) \) \( \frac{1}{f} = (0.3) \left( \frac{1}{15} + \frac{1}{10} \right) \) \( \frac{1}{f} = (0.3) \left( \frac{2+3}{30} \right) \)…
