Hello mate
here is your answer
Given,
v = - 75 cm,
u = - 25 cm
From the formula of lens:
=> 1/F = 1/V-1/U
=> 1/F = 1/-75-(-1/25)
=> 1/F = -1/75+1/25
=> 1/F = -1/75+3/75
=>1/F = 2/75
=> F = 37.5 cm
Means,
F= 37.5 cm
from power of lens formula
=> P=1/F in mere
=> P = 1/37.5/100
=> P = 1000/ 375
=> P= +2.66D
The corrective lens needs to have a converging power of +2/66 or +2.67 dioptres, i.e., convex lens.
I hope helps you
