$A$ biconvex lens with equal radii of curvature has a refractive index of $1.6$ and a focal length of $10 \ cm$. Its radius of curvature will be.......$cm$.

The radii of curvature of both surfaces of a convex lens of focal length $f$ and focal power $P$ are equal. One of the surfaces is made plane by grinding. The new focal length and focal power of the lens are respectively:

An object is moving towards a converging lens on its axis. The image is also found to be moving towards the lens. Then,the object distance $u$ must satisfy:

In an experiment with a convex lens,the plot of the image distance $(v')$ against the object distance $(u')$ measured from the focus gives a curve $v' u' = 225$. If all the distances are measured in $cm$,the magnitude of the focal length of the lens is $cm$.
