Focal length of a thin convex lens is 30 cm. At a distance of 10 cm from the lens there is a plane refracting surface of refractive index 3/2. Where will the parallel rays incident on lens converge –
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
The lens will converge the rays at its focus i.e. 30cm from the lens or 20cm from refracting surface.
PI 2 = µ(PI 1 ) = 
× 20 = 30 cm
So the rays will converge at a distance of 40cm from the lens
