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

  1. become zero
  2. become infinite
  3. become small, but non-zero
  4. remain unchanged

Answer

(2) become infinite

Solution

Lens maker's formula in a medium of refractive index m:

1f = ( l m - 1 ) ( 1R1 - 1R2 )

Here l = m ⇒ l m - 1 = 0

⇒ 1f = 0 ⇒ f =

∴ The lens behaves like a plane glass plate (no bending of light); its focal length becomes infinite.

Answer: (2)
