The ray diagram could be correct

A

If `n_(1)=n_(2)=n_(3)`

B

If `n_(1)=n_(2)` and `n_(1) lt n_(g)`

C

If `n_(1)=n_(2)` and `n_(1) gt n_(g)`

D

Under no circumstances

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
If `n_(1)gtn_(g)` then the lens will be in more dense medium. Hence its nature will change and the convex lens will behave like a concave lens.
