1.

The plane surface of a plano-convex lens of refracting index 1.5,issilvered. The radius of curvature of curved surface is R. Find the focal length of the mirror thus formed.

Answer»

Solution :`1/f_("lens") = (1.5-1)(1/R - 1/infty) implies f_("lens")=2R`
`P_("mirror") = 1/(2R) - 1/oo + 1/(2R)= 1/R implies f_("mirror")=-R` (CONCAVE mirror)
