29. The radius of curvature of a plano-convex lens
which has 2 refractive index is 20 cm. By
applying Silver Bromide on its surface to
change it as a concave mirror, what is the focal
length of the formed mirror ?
(1) 20 cm
(2) 40 cm
(3) 5 cm
(4)10cm

ANSWER :

The answer to your question is 5 cm.

To find out, use lens makers formula and then silvering of lens formula

LENS MAKERS FORMULA :   1/F= (μ-1)(1/R₁-1/R₂)

SILVERING OF LENS : 1/F= -2/f₁ + 1/f₂

                            where F= FOCAL LENGTH OF EQUIVALENT MIRROR

                                       f₁ = focal length of lens

                                      f₂ = focal length of mirror
