GEOMETRICAL OPTICS: Focal Length and the Index of Refraction

Q: A thin spherical planar-convex lens is surrounded by air: The lens has a radius of curvature ( R2 ) of 50mm and a refractive index ( n1 ) of 1.50. Determine the focal length. Additionally, what will happen to the lens’ focal length if it is placed within a watery medium instead of airContinue reading “GEOMETRICAL OPTICS: Focal Length and the Index of Refraction”
