Question:

An equiconvex lens of focal length 10 cm is made up of material with refractive index 1.5. The radius of curvature of the each surface is

Options:

10 cm

20 cm

40 cm

5 cm

Correct Answer:

10 cm

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → 10 cm

Lens maker's formula

$\frac{1}{f}=(\mu-1)\left[\frac{1}{R_1}-\frac{1}{R_2}\right]$

$\frac{1}{f}=0.5\left[\frac{2}{R}\right]$

R = 10 cm
