The optician's prescription for a spectacle lens is marked +0.5 D. What is the:
(a) nature of spectacle lens?
(b) focal length of spectacle lens?

उत्तर
Positive power indicates it is a converging lens.
Power of a lens is given by:
power(p)=`1/f`
`0.5=1/f`
`f=1/0.5`
`f=2m`

(3) no image as the screen has been removed
(4) an inverted image of the tree at the focus of the lens.
Consider three converging lenses L1, L2 and L3 having identical geometrical construction. The index of refraction of L1 and L2 are \[\mu_1 \text{ and } \mu_2\] respectively. The upper half of the lens L3 has a refractive index \[\mu_1\] and the lower half has \[\mu_2\] following figure . A point object O is imaged at O1 by the lens L1 and at O2 by the lens L2placed in same position. If L3 is placed at the same place,
(a) there will be an image at O1
(b) there will be an image at O2.
(c) the only image will form somewhere between O1 and O2
(d) the only image will form away from O2.
