Find the behaviour of concave lens placed in a rarrer medium.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Factor(A) is negative, becuyase the lens is concave.
Factor(B) is positive, because the lens is placed in a rarrer medium.
Therefore the focal length of the lens, which depneds on the product of these factors, is negative and hence the lens will behave as diverging lens.
