    A convex lens is dipped in a liquid whose refractive index is equal to the refractive index of the lens. Then its focal length will

    A)  Become infinite

    B)  Become small, but non-zero

    C)  Remain unchanged

    D)  Become zero

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     The focal length of a lens is given by \[\frac{1}{f}=\left( \frac{{{\mu }_{2}}}{{{\mu }_{1}}}-1 \right)\left( \frac{1}{{{R}_{1}}}-\frac{1}{{{R}_{2}}} \right)\] \[{{\mu }_{1}}\]and \[{{\mu }_{2}}\]are the refractive index of medium and material of lens respectively. If \[{{\mu }_{1}}={{\mu }_{2}},\]then the length of lens will be infinite. In this case the lens acts as a plane sheet of glass.
