A plano-convex lens has thickness 4cm. When places on a horizontal table with the curved surface in contact with it, the apparent depth of the bottom-most point of the lens if found to be 3cm. If the lens is inverted such that the plane face is in contact with the table, the apparent depth of the center of the plane face of the lens is face of the lens is found to be `25//8` cm. Find the focal length of the lens.

A plano-convex lens has a maximum thickness of 6 cm. When placed on a horizontal table with the curved surface in contact with the table surface, then the apparent depth of the bottom most point of the lens is found to be 4 cm. If the lens is inverted such that the plane face of the lens is in contact with the surface of the table, then the apparent depth of the centre of the plane face is found to be 17/3 cm. The radius of curvature of the lens is
