To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these procedures: ### Step 1: Determine the Focal Length of the Lens We will use the lens maker's formula to find the focal length (f) of the biconvex lens. The lens maker's formula is given by: \[ \frac{1}{f} = (\mu - 1) \left( \frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2} \right) ...
