### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Definition of Focal Length**: The focal length of a lens is defined as the distance between the optical center of the lens and its focal point. It is the point where parallel rays of light either converge (for a converging lens) or appear to diverge from (for a diverging lens) after passing through the lens. 2. **Understanding the Relationship**: For a lens, the focal length (f) is related to the radius of curvature (R) of the lens surfaces. The focal length is given by the formula: \[ ...
