Within a glass slab, a double convex air bubble is formed. How would the air bubble behave ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

This air bubble would behave as a diverging lens, because `mu` of air is less than `mu` of glass. However, the geometrical shape of the air bubble shall resemble a double convex lens.
