Answer:
The reciprocal of focal length is the power of the lens.
Explanation:
What is the power of lenses?
- The power of the lens is equal to the reciprocal of focal length. It is measured in a unit called dioptre.
- The power of a concave lens is negative.
- The power of a convex lens is positive.
- Myopia or nearsightedness is corrected using a concave lens. Thus, the power of glasses for myopia is given in negative.
- Hypermetropia or longsightedness is corrected using a convex lens. Thus, the power of glasses for myopia is given in positive.
