Answer» Answer: Explanation: Given :- u = - 25 cm v = - 75 cm To Find :- f = ?? P = ?? Solution :- Using, 1/v - 1/u = 1/f we get ⇒ 1/- 75 - 1/- 25 = 1/f ⇒ 1/- 75 + 1/25 = 1/f ⇒ 2/75 = 1/f ⇒ f = 75/2 ⇒ f = 37.5 cm Hence, the focal length is 37.5 cm. Now, P = 100/37.5 cm ⇒ P = 2.6 D Hence, the power of lens REQUIRED to enable him to read NEWS PAPER is 2.6 D. |
