Answer:
It will behave as a converging lens.
Explanation:
Considering the lens to be an equi-convex lens, use the formula
1/f = (μ - 1 )(1/R₁ - 1/R₂)
R₁ = R₂= R
1/f = 1.3-1)(1/R - 1/R)
f = 5R/3,
When the lens is dipped in a liquid having a refractive index of 1.4, then
we will calculate the f of liquid, and we get this by using the above formula = -2R/14 = -7R
Now, f total will be equal to 1/f₁ + 1/f₂ = 16R/35 ,
f total is greater than zero so, the lens will behave as a converging lens.
