A convex lens is made from glass material having refractive index of \(1.4\) with same radius of curvature on both sides. The ratio of its focal length and radius of curvature is ______.
- A \(0.5\)
- B \(2.5\)
- C \(0.8\)
- D \(1.25\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(1.25\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Using the lens maker's formula: \(\dfrac{1}{f} = (\mu - 1) \left( \dfrac{1}{R_1} - \dfrac{1}{R_2} \right)\) For an equiconvex lens, \(R_1 = R\) and \(R_2 = -R\). Given \(\mu = 1.4\): \(\dfrac{1}{f} = (1.4 - 1) \left( \dfrac{1}{R} - \dfrac{1}{-R} \right)\)…

Consider two blocks A and B of masses \(m_1=10 \mathrm{~kg}\) and \(m_2=5 \mathrm{~kg}\) that are placed on a frictionless table. The block A moves with a constant speed \(v=3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) towards the block B kept at rest. A spring with spring constant \(\mathrm{k}=3000 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\) is attached with the block B as shown in the figure. After the collision, suppose that the blocks A and B, along with the spring in constant compression state, move together, then the compression in the spring is _______.
