Determine the focal length of a plano-concave lens (refractive index n =1.5) with 24 cm radius of curvature on its curve surface 1)-96 cm
2)-24 cm
3)-48 cm
4)-72 cm

Option 3: -48 cm

Explanation:

We are given:

refractive index; n = 1.5

radius of curvature; r2 = 24 cm

Formula for the focal length is given as;

1/f = (n - 1) × [(1/r1) - (1/r2)]

As r1 tends to infinity, 1/r1 = 0

Thus,we now have;

1/f = (n - 1) × (-1/r2)

Plugging in the relevant values;

1/f = (1.5 - 1) × (-1/24)

1/f = -0.02083333333

f = -1/0.02083333333

f = -48 cm
