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
    equal to that of glass
  • D
    less than one

$A$ thin convex lens made from crown glass $\left( \mu = \frac{3}{2} \right)$ has focal length $f$. When it is measured in two different liquids having refractive indices $\frac{4}{3}$ and $\frac{5}{3}$,it has the focal lengths $f_1$ and $f_2$ respectively. The correct relation between the focal lengths is:

$A$ thin double convex lens has radii of curvature each of magnitude $40 \; cm$ and is made of glass with refractive index $1.65$. Its focal length is nearly....... $cm$.

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 $cm$.

Two point light sources are $24 \, cm$ apart. Where should a convex lens of focal length $9 \, cm$ be placed between them from one source so that the images of both the sources are formed at the same place (in $, cm$)?
