Statement I: Although the surfaces of gogggle lengses are curved, it does not have any power.
Statement II: In case of goggle, both the curved surfaces have equal radii of curvature and have center of curvature on the same side.

A

Statement is True, Statement II is True, Statement II is correct explanation for Statement I

B

Statement I is True, Statement II is True, Statement II is NOT a correct explanation for Statement I.

C

Statement I is True, Statement II is False.

D

Statement I is False, Statement II is True.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a.

Both statements are true and Statement II is the correct explanation of Statement I.
The focal length of a lens is given by, `(1)/(f)=(mu-1) ((1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2)))`
For goggle, `R_(1)=R_(2)`
`(1)/(f)=(mu-1) ((1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2)))=0`
Therefore, power `P=(1)/(f)=0`
