When a biconvex lens of glass having refractive index $1.47$ is dipped in a liquid,it acts as a plane sheet of glass. This implies that the liquid must have a refractive index:

  • A
    greater than that of glass
  • B
    less than that of glass
  • C
    less than one
  • D
    equal to that of glass

The focal length of a convex lens of refractive index $1.5$ is $2 \ cm$. What will be the focal length of the lens when it is immersed in a liquid of refractive index $1.25$?

An object and a screen are fixed on the uprights of an optical bench. The distance between them is $100 \, cm$. $A$ convex lens is placed in between the object and the screen and the position of the lens is so adjusted that the image of the object is formed on the screen at two conjugate positions of the lens. The distance between these conjugate positions of the lens is $40 \, cm$. What is the focal length of the lens in $cm$?

$A$ lateral object of height $h_o = 0.5\, cm$ is placed on the optical axis of a bi-convex lens of focal length $f = 80\, cm$,at an object distance $u = -60\, cm$. The image formed is:
