उत्तर
From lens maker formula, we have
\[P = (\mu - 1)\left( \frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2} \right)\]
\[\text { where} \]
\[ P =\text { Power of lens } = + 5 D\]
\[\mu = \text { Refractive index of the lens } = 1 . 55\]
\[ R_1 =\text { Radius of curvature of first face } \left( + ve \right)\]
\[ R_2 = \text { Radius of curvature of second face } \left( - ve \right)\]
\[\text {Given }: \]
\[ R_1 = R_2 = R\]
\[ \Rightarrow P = (\mu - 1)\left( \frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2} \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow 5 = (1 . 55 - 1)\left( \frac{1}{R} - \frac{1}{- R} \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow 5 = (1 . 55 - 1)\left( \frac{2}{R} \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow 5 = 0 . 55\left( \frac{2}{R} \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow R = \frac{0 . 55 \times 2}{5}\]
\[ \Rightarrow R = 0 . 22 m\]

You have learnt that plane and convex mirrors produce virtual images of objects. Can they produce real images under some circumstances? Explain.

- Determine the ‘effective focal length’ of the combination of the two lenses, if they are placed 8.0 cm apart with their principal axes coincident. Does the answer depend on which side of the combination a beam of parallel light is incident? Is the notion of the effective focal length of this system useful at all?

Figure shows an equiconvex lens (of refractive index 1.50) in contact with a liquid layer on top of a plane mirror. A small needle with its tip on the principal axis is moved along the axis until its inverted image is found at the position of the needle. The distance of the needle from the lens is measured to be 45.0 cm. The liquid is removed and the experiment is repeated. The new distance is measured to be 30.0 cm. What is the refractive index of the liquid?
