hey

No, The focal length is not same in all the mediums

☆ Focal length changes accordance to the medium

EX :- A lens changes it's focal length when kept in water from air

Here, Air and water are two mediums

Question has some doubts.

Is it mirror or lens?

If mirror, the focal length is same in all mediums.

If lens, then then it changes according to the medium for example if it is kept in a medium greater than its own refractive index then a converging lens behaves like a diverging lens and when a convex lens is kept in water then it appears that the focal length has increased.

Physically there is no change in focal length of a lens.


Naidu777: Both mirror and lens
