Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the effect on the power of a glass lens when it is immersed in water, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Lensmaker's Formula The power (P) of a lens is related to its focal length (f) by the formula: \[ P = \frac{1}{f} \] Additionally, the lensmaker's formula gives us: \[ P = \frac{\mu_L}{\mu_M - 1} \cdot \left( \frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2} \right) \] where: ...
