What are the sign conventions followed for lenses?

उत्तर
The sign conventions for thin lenses differ only in the signs followed for focal lengths.
- The sign of focal length is not decided on the direction of measurement of the focal length from the pole of the lens as they have two focal lengths, one to the left and another to the right (primary and secondary focal lengths on either side of the lens).
- The focal length of the thin lens is taken as positive for a converging lens and negative for a diverging lens.
