Question

A spherical air bubble is embedded in a piece of glass. For a ray of light passing through the bubble, it behaves like a :; 1) converging lens; 2) diverging lens; 3) piano-converging lens; 4) piano-diverging lens

Answer 1

Hey !!

Option (B) Diverging lens

Diverging lens is embedded in a piece of glass for a ray of light passing through the bubble.

Good luck !!

Answer 2

If a spherical air bubble is embedded in a piece of glass, then for a ray of light passing through the bubble, it behaves like a diverging lens.

• If in a piece of glass, there is a spherical air bubble, then when a ray of light travels through the bubble, the refraction in the glass causes it to behave like a diverging lens.
• The inside surface will be concave, and light will bend away from normal when it passes from glass to air inside the cavity.

Therefore, the diverging lens will be the correct answer.
