A convex lens has power \(P\). It is cut into two halves along its principal axis. Further one piece (out of two halves) is cut into two halves perpendicular to the principal axis as shown in figure. Choose the incorrect option for the reported lens pieces

  1. A Power of \(L_2\) is \(\frac{P}{2}\)
  2. B Power of \(L_3\) is \(\frac{P}{2}\)
  3. C Power of \(L_1\) is \(P\)
  4. D Power of \(L_1\) is \(\frac{P}{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) Power of \(L_1\) is \(\frac{P}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation



\(P_2 \frac{1}{\mathrm{~F}}=(\mu-1) \frac{2}{\mathrm{R}}\)

Power of L1 \(\nabla \rightarrow \mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{L}_1}=(\mu-1) \frac{2}{\mathrm{R}}=\mathrm{P}\)
