Find the power of a convex lens of focal length of + 25 cm.
Advertisements
उत्तर
Given: Focal length (f) = 25 cm = 0.25 m
To find: Power of the lens (P)
Formula: P = `1/("f"("m"))`
Calculation: From formula, P = `1/0.25` = 4 D
The power of the convex lens is 4 D.

Increase in the converging power of eye lens cause ‘hypermetropia'
Match the following:
| Column - I | Column - II | ||
| 1 | Retina | a | Path way of light |
| 2 | Pupil | b | Far point comes closer |
| 3 | Ciliary muscles | c | near point moves away |
| 4 | Myopia | d | Screen of the eye |
