To find the focal length and nature of a lens whose optical power is -5D, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between power and focal length The optical power (P) of a lens is related to its focal length (f) by the formula: \[ P = \frac{1}{f} \] where P is in diopters (D) and f is in meters (m). ### Step 2: Substitute the given power into the formula ...
