The refractive index of a converging lens is \(1.4.\) What will be the focal length of this lens if it is placed in a medium of same refractive index ? (Assume the radii of curvature of the faces of lens are \(R _{1}\) and \(R _{2}\) respectively)
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Infinite
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\frac{1}{ F }=\left[\frac{\mu_{ L }}{\mu_{ S }}-1\right]\left[\frac{1}{ R _{1}}-\frac{1}{ R _{2}}\right]\)
If \(\mu_{ L }=\mu_{ S } \Rightarrow \frac{1}{ F }=0 \Rightarrow F =\infty\)
