\[1 \cdot 2\] Both the surfaces of the lens are convex. If it is dipped into water (μ = 1.33), it will behave like 

Options

  •  a convergent lens

  • a divergent lens

  • a rectangular slab

  •  a prism.

Solution

 a divergent lens
Since the refractive index of lens is less than that of of water and both the sides are convex, it will act like a normal diverging lens (though its focal length will change to negative).
