(b) What is the focal length of a \(-6.75\)-D lens? Are these lenses converging or diverging?

Solution

Q:(a) What is the power of a 32.5-cm-focal-length lens? (b) What is the focal length of a -6.25D lens? Are these lenses converging or diverging

Step By Step Solution

Step 1 of 2:

(a)

Given:

Focal length:

The power of a lens is found by the following formula:

Hence the power of a 32.5 lens is 3.07D.

It’s a converging lens
