Statement-1 : A glass convex lens (refractive index, `mu_(1)=1.5`), when immersed in a liquid of refractive index `mu_(2)=2`, functions as a diverging lens.
Statement-2 : The focal length of a lens is given by `(1)/(f)=(mu-1)((1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2)))`, where `mu` is the relative refractive index of the material of the lens with respect to the surrounding medium.
