Physics Question on Reflection Of Light By Spherical Mirrors

What is the focal length of a plano-convex lens if 'R' is the radius of curvature and ‘n’ is the refractive index?

A

f=Rf=R

B

f=R2f=\frac R2

C

f=Rn1f=\frac {R}{n-1}

D

f=n1Rf=\frac {n-1}{R}

Answer

f=Rn1f=\frac {R}{n-1}

Explanation

Solution

The correct option is (C): f=Rn1f=\frac {R}{n-1}.
