Calculate the focal length of a reading glass of a person if his distance of distinct vision is 75 cm.

A

100.4cm

B

75.2cm

C

37.5cm

D

25.6cm

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`v= - 75cm, u= -25cm`
`(1)/(f) = (1)/(u) + (1)/((-v)) = (1)/(25) + (1)/(-75) = (2)/(75) rArr f= (75)/(2)` we get f= 37.5cm
