  1. A increase
  2. B remain unchanged
  3. C become infinite
  4. D become zero
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) become infinite

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For a lens \(\frac{1}{\mathrm{f}}=\left(\mu^{\prime}-1\right)\left(\frac{1}{\mathrm{R}_1}-\frac{1}{\mathrm{R}_2}\right)\)
Where \(\mu^{\prime}=\frac{\mu_{\mathrm{g}}}{\mu_{\ell}}=1\)
\(
\therefore \frac{1}{\mathrm{f}}=0 \text { or } \mathrm{f}=\infty
\)
